Trinity Orchestra, Harrow

Under the baton of guest conductor Ben Palmer, Trinity Orchestra returns to the music of Brahms with a performance of his sublime Violin Concerto by the internationally renowned Dutch violinist Berent Korfker.

Written for the legendary soloist Joachim, it can be safely said that Brahms's impressive work is one of the most popular concerti of all time. This performance by multi award-winning violinist and Royal College of Music professor Berent Korfker promises to be a very special one, not to be missed.

Framing Brahms's much-loved work will be the famous Magic Flute Overture by Mozart and the 'Spring' Symphony No 1 by Schumann. The title is drawn from a line by the German Romantic poet, Böttger and translates as "In the valley, spring approaches", and Schumann's great work evocatively depicts the freshness and energy of spring and relief at the end of winter.

Join us for a pre-concert talk at 7pm through which you can learn more about the evening's music.
