A concert of high drama and sweeping symphonic breadth. Beethoven’s Fidelio Overture launches the night with urgency and triumph and marks the 200th anniversary of Beethoven’s death. Lalo’s dazzling showpiece, Symphonie espagnole – part concerto, part symphony – for violin and orchestra follows. Brahms’s Second Symphony completes the programme with warmth, grandeur and lyricism.
