Programme Note
For Beethoven, the violin wasn't just a musical instrument - it was a hotline to the infinite. Tonight's concert is directed by Royal Northern Sinfonia's leader Maria Wlosczcowska, an artist who thrives on collaboration and on musical drama. Beethoven's sublime Violin Concerto, and his haunting Cavatina frame the fiery dance rhythms of Bartok's powerful Divertimento.
