About this Event
Summer Classics
Radiant melodies, dazzling agility and theatre from first note to last: join us in a joyful celebration of wind virtuosity and symphonic brilliance.
An evening of wit and Mediterranean warmth awaits you, as Lucas Macias conducts a programme that lets our wind soloists truly shine.
Rossini sets the stage with the effervescent Overture to The Silken Ladder, a playful curtain-raiser brimming with comic charm. Weber then puts the clarinet in the spotlight: SCO Principal Maximiliano Martín brings virtuoso dash to the lively Concertino, before SCO Principal Bassoon Cerys Ambrose-Evans joins him for Stamitz’s elegant double concerto, full of conversational interplay and Classical poise.
Weber’s Andante & Rondo capriccioso gives the bassoon its own star turn, combining tender song with irresistible flair. After the interval, Mendelssohn’s Italian Symphony bathes the hall in musical sunshine, its dancing finale sending you home smiling.
