We are delighted to welcome back star young soloist Maxim Calver to play Elgar’s much loved Cello Concerto
Maxim Calver cello
ELGAR In the South (Alassio)
ELGAR Cello Concerto in E minor Op 85
HINDEMITH Symphonic Metamorphosis
We are delighted to welcome back star young soloist Maxim Calver to play Elgar’s much loved Cello Concerto. Elgar’s concert overture In the South (Alassio) was inspired by a family holiday on the Italian Riviera and conjures up everything from ‘Joy of Life (wine and macaroni),’ through Mediterranean storms and romantic ruins with shepherds, to Roman armies on the march. Our programme ends with Hindemith’s most popular work, the Symphonic Metamorphosis on Themes by Carl Maria von Weber – a colourful and exuberant orchestral tour de force featuring marches, fugues and variations on a Chinese folk song.
