Programme Note

William Walton's fizzing Johannesburg Festival Overture opens the evening before the orchestra is joined by its friend, the brilliant Madeleine Mitchell for the ever-popular Bruch Violin Concerto No.1.

After the interval, the core of the programme is the Vaughan Williams Symphony No.8 (with its extensive array of tuned percussion and gongs) before Ravel's La Valse brings the evening to a tumultuously swirling conclusion.
