Programme Note
The concert begins with the delightful overture from Humperdinck's opera Hansel & Gretel. Second in this evening's programme is Frederick Delius' violin concerto - a lyrical and atmospheric work that unfolds in a single continuous movement evoking a dreamlike soundscape. In the second half, we turn to Symphony No. 4 by Gustav Mahler. Light in character yet full of subtle depth, the symphony blends playfulness with moments of reflection, culminating in a radiant final movement that offers a serene, childlike vision of heaven.
