Tonight’s programme is full of Central European music. We start with the String Orchestra’s all Czech programme including little-known masterpieces by Suk and Fibich, but the highlight will surely be Janá?ek's Suite for Strings. Also featured will be the world première of Kevin Malone's Angels and Fireflies, as part of the North-West Composers’ Festival, starring John Turner on recorder. The Chamber Orchestra will close with Haydn's Symphony No.95 and Hungarian composer Kodály's exciting Dances of Galanta!
