Programme Note

Clarity, Grace and Power moves through the early Romantic symphonic world with energy and purpose.
Felix Mendelssohn opens the evening with the vivid seascape Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage, a work of luminous orchestral clarity to set the evening in motion.
Franz Schubert follows with his Fifth Symphony, a score of classical poise and effortless grace, inspired by Mozartian balance and lyricism.
After the interval, the programme culminates in Louise Farrenc’s powerful Third Symphony, a work of striking rhythmic drive and structural authority that stands among the most compelling symphonic statements of its time.
