Programme Note
London City Philharmonic presents a bucolic evening with Mendelssohn’s ‘The Hebrides’ also known as Fingal's Cave, depicts the mood with the opening notes which Mendelssohn wrote while visiting the cave. Meanwhile, Branka Popovic ‘Stardust’ is an energetic contemporary work which will receive its UK premiere and then moving to the Bohemian forests of Weber ‘Der Freischutz’. The concert will conclude with the warm and songful melodies of Dvorak’s ‘8th Symphony’. Join us for an evening of the Great Outdoors.
