Our summer programme opens with a bang: Britten’s well-loved Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra is complemented in the first half by Walton’s Violin Concerto, originally commissioned for Jascha Heifetz and played here by the extraordinary British talent Charlie Lovell-Jones.
The second half features Rachmaninoff’s masterful and exuberant Symphony No.2.
