Britten’s Violin Concerto follows, with its heartfelt lyricism and emotional depth - a true showcase of his extraordinary gift for storytelling through music. The programme concludes with Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No 5, a towering masterpiece that journeys from darkness to light, capturing the composer’s ability to express profound emotion through symphonic form. Together, these pieces create an evening of breathtaking music and timeless artistry.
