Programme Note
Our next concert teams Beethoven with Dvorak in a programme of spirited music ideal for a spring evening.
‘Egmont’ will give our evening a fine dramatic opening, but this is not a portentous programme. The two Dvorak Serenades each combine typical high-spirited Slavic dance rhythms with contrasted movements of dreamy relaxation. Beethoven’s first symphony is a cheerful and energetic work which bridges the worlds of Mozart and of the fully mature Beethoven’s later works.
