This programme brings a feast of wit, elegance and hidden treasures. Rossini's sparkling overture to L'italiana in Algeri sets the scene with irresistible comic élan, before we welcome clarinettist Oliver Janes for Mozart's sublime Clarinet Concerto, one of the most wonderful works ever written for the instrument.
The evening culminates in Hoffmann's First Symphony. He was a writer, critic, and polymath, and this symphony is a fascinating example of early Romantic music, reflecting his dual passions for classical architecture and intense, emotional Romantic expressivity. Join SCO for an evening that pairs the familiar with the fascinatingly unexpected.
