Viennese Classics

Wed 19 Nov 2:15pm at Symphony Hall

Henning Kraggerud

Henning Kraggerud

Schubert and Brahms: their music epitomises all that was best in the Viennese tradition between the death of Beethoven and the arrival of Mahler. Olari Elts has chosen to couple one of Schubert’s sunniest symphonies with Brahms’ supremely dramatic violin concerto, played by an exceptional Norwegian soloist making his first appearance in Birmingham. Shorter works show a different side to both composer’s amazingly varied talents.

£9.50, £13.50, £17.50, £21.50, £24, £28, £32
