About this event

Felix Mendelssohn Violin Concerto (27 mins)
Franz Schubert Symphony No. 9, The Great (48 mins)

Dinis Sousa conductor
Hana Chang violin
Royal Northern Sinfonia

It’s no wonder that Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto has now been an audience favourite for over 150 years – its simply jam-packed with good tunes. Passionate, yearning and a ‘wow’ showcase for any soloist, it’s a guaranteed great start to a concert.

Your evening is rounded off by Schubert’s orchestral masterpiece, his aptly named ‘Great’ Symphony – think blissful slow movements offset by the driving, springy, rhythms of the fast movements. A wonderful end to a special evening.

Concert lasts around 1 hour 50 minutes including a 20 minute interval.
