Concert Details

Our next concert will be on 28 June in Sudbury Arts Centre and we are very proud and extremely excited that Michael Foyle on violin is returning to play with us when he performs Mendelssihn's Violin Concerto in E minor,  This is the last concerto he wrote and it was popular from the get go.  It is the most prominent and well regarded violin concerto in the repertoire and its opening violin salve will send shivers down your spine - wonderfully delicious shivers to be savoured!   Sit back and enjoy.

We start the evening with Beethoven's Leonora Overture no. 3  to his opera Fidelio.  He actually wrote four versions of the overture and at least three versions of the opera. This is the final version and its frequently and performed as a concert piece in its own right - its that good. 

We finish the evening with Schubert's wonderful Unfinished Symphony, He started it in 1822 and no one really knows why he never completed it.  There are  two complete movements that he did compose, the first two pages of the third movement and no fourth movement that we know of - although some people think it did exist at some stage but was recycled into his Rosamunde work - we shall never know.  Tonight we are performing the first two movements which are beautful and lyrical.
