Internationally seasoned violinist Thomas Gould performs Vivaldi’s dazzling 'Four Seasons' and Piazzolla’s 'Four Seasons of Buenos Aires'.

London Firebird Orchestra returns to the LCMS series with a concert of chamber orchestra classics.

The final concert in London Firebird Orchestra's 2017/18 season.

Beethoven's majestic Egmont Overture opens Firebird's 2018/19 Season in truly monumental form, conducted by Firebird’s own George Jackson. Alongside is Bruch's beautiful Violin Concerto performed by the Belgian violinist Leonard Schreiber - and is considered to be one of the most popular concertos ever composed.

The second half features two magical works by Dvořák, opening with his ‘Song to the Moon’ from his opera Rusalka and sung by rising star Verity Wingate. And secondly the cheery and lyrical 8th Symphony which draws its inspiration from the Bohemian folk music that Dvořák so loved.

Following the sell-out 2017 début, Firebird makes a welcome return to this fantastic venue in Oxford with a concert of some of the finest classical music in the repertoire.

The mysterious overture to A Midsummer Night’s Dream - composed by the 17-year-old Mendelssohn - forms the magical opening to a concert of music from the heart of 19th century European classical music. Schumann’s heart-rending cello concerto will be performed by the dazzling cellist Raphael Wallfisch before Brahms’s great Beethovenian inspired First Symphony.

Prokofiev Peter and the Wolf and a selection of other pieces designed to introduce the magical world of the orchestra to London schoolchildren.
