EVENT DESCRIPTION

Programme
MENDELSSOHNViolin Concerto
BRUCKNERSymphony no. 4
Bruckner imagined a story of knights, forests and distant castles, but he preferred to let the music speak for itself, and in the hands of guest conductor Christoph Eschenbach it will do precisely that. Opening the concert, superstar violinist Ray Chen plays Mendelssohn’s gloriously tuneful Violin Concerto: you’ll believe a violin can sing.

The concert runs approximately 2 hours with an intermission.
Please note latecomers will miss the whole concerto, and the audience is advised to allow enough time for admission.

Artists
Christoph Eschenbach, conductor
Ray Chen, violin
