Serenades and Starbursts BSO On Your Doorstep: Portsmouth

A concert to pull at your heartstrings and satisfy any curious soul. A 19 piece BSO Strings Ensemble present an energetic, eclectic programme rich in heritage and heart.
Sink into the sublime as we serenade you with Tchaikovsky’s string masterpiece. A poised and sedate piece that lies at the heart of this musical tapestry.
Take a musical tour beginning along the Mediterranean coastline with, inspired by the 16th century Italian architect that the pieces get it’s name, Jenkins’ beloved Palladio. Journey east with Bartok’s Romanian Folk Dances and Skyork’s beguiling Ukrainian Melody. And Holst pays homage to British folk song with his charming St. Paul’s Suite.
Across the continent and through time, we travel further still. Into a galaxy of rapidly changing musical colours, exploding gestures and fleeting melodies that create the wondrous soundscape of Jessie Montgomery’s Starburst.. A kind and inquisitive composition, Gershwin’s ethereal Lullaby continues our journey further and further away in a concert designed for all ages.
