Series I  Wednesday, January 5, 2011, 8:00 pm
 

Elgar’s ravishingly beautiful Introduction & Allegro highlights a program of all-British music.  From Purcell’s Baroque suite of incidental music to the play Abdelazar to E. J. Moeran’s little-known 20th Century masterpiece that is reminiscent of Vaughn Williams in its use of folk songs, this is a concert that you won’t want to miss!

 
 
Series II  Thursday, February 3, 2011, 8:00 pm
 
Jon Nakamatsu, Piano
 
Two 18th Century symphonies are the “bookends” of a great program of music!  Mozart’s symphonies are well-known and loved, but those of British composer William Boyce have been unjustly ignored by posterity… until brought to light by our very own musical detective  Maestro Robertson!  Add in Chopin’s virtuosic and melodic Piano Concerto and you have a well-rounded concert of aural treats for the true musical connoisseur!

 
 
Series III  Wednesday, March 2, 2011, 8:00 pm
 
Leonid Sigal, Violin
 
A concert of music from the North!  The great Finnish composer Sibelius’ Valse Triste is joined with works by Swedes Järnefelt and Larsson and the acclaimed present day Estonian composer Arvo Pärt.  And what concert of music by Northern composers would be complete without a Russian… we have two of Tchaikovsky’s lovely, lyrical and virtuosic showpieces for violin and orchestra played by the ACO’s own Concertmaster Leonid Sigal! 

Series IV  Thursday, March 31, 2011, 8:00 pm
 
Caroline Goulding, Violin

A concert of orchestral favorites to finish the 2011 Season!  Rossini’s famous Barber of Seville Overture needs no introduction– its high energy and infectious good spirits will leave you smiling!  Bruch’s Violin Concerto features incendiary virtuosity and lyric romanticism in equal measures– the ideal vehicle for young violinist Caroline Goulding.  Called the “apotheosis of the dance” by Wagner, Beethoven’s immortal Seventh Symphony is the perfect way to end a season of incredible music!
