Romantic rarities and a favourite

Rachmaninov, Coleridge-Taylor and Dvorak

Add to my Calendar 23-11-2024 19:30 23-11-2024 21:30 36 Romantic rarities and a favourite Rachmaninov only completed one movement of his early ‘Youth’ symphony which nonetheless points the way to his later great symphonic compositions. The music of the Anglo-African Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was hugely popular a hundred years ago but is rarely heard today.   Jordan Brooks, a talented young South African, winner of prizes in South Africa, China and the UK, will play his Violin Concerto in G minor. On more familiar territory Dvorak’s seventh symphony is brimming with typically Bohemian melody, dance and drama.  Trinity Church Centre, London DD/MM/YYYY
