Enjoy a standout Sunday afternoon with Royal Northern Sinfonia, the North East’s professional orchestra, playing music by three of the greatest composers of all time.
They kick off with Ludwig van Beethoven’s Sextet in E flat major. It’s warm, witty, and full of charm – not the brooding Beethoven many people expect. Just six players, but they fill the room with colour and character.
Next up is Franz Josef Haydn’s ‘Sunrise’ string quartet. It opens in a hush, with the first violin gently climbing like a new day breaking. But don’t get too comfortable, Haydn’s playful streak shines through and the surprises keep coming.
They round things off with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Clarinet Quintet in A major – a proper gem, and one of the most-loved pieces in the chamber repertoire. It’s graceful, soulful, and full of warmth.
Running time: 75 minutes no interval.
