Our final concert of the main season is a Spring-themed programme that highlights innovation and intensity.
Lili Boulanger's shimmering miniature D'un matin de printemps offers a radiant start, followed by Bantock's evocative Russian Scenes.
The spotlight then turns to a rare performance of Ruth Gipps's lyrical and beautifully crafted Oboe Concerto with soloist Ewan Millar (kindly supported by Making Music's Philip & Dorothy Green Young Artists scheme).
The season concludes with Elgar's Symphony No. 1, a masterwork of nobility, pathos, and English symphonic brilliance.
