Brahms, Schubert & Mozart

Mozart – The Magic Flute Overture
Brahmns – Double Concerto (for Violin & Cello) performed by Tom Budden & Chris Hurn
Schubert – “Unfinished” Symphony No. 8

Experience an evening of drama, lyricism, and mystery as we perform three unforgettable works from the great masters of classical music.

Mozart – The Magic Flute Overture

Mozart’s final opera, The Magic Flute, opens with this brilliant overture, which balances grandeur with playful energy. Its noble chords and lively fugue capture the opera’s themes of wisdom, love, and the triumph of light over darkness. The overture is a perfect concert opener, brimming with Mozart’s trademark sparkle and wit.

Brahms – Double Concerto for Violin & Cello

Written in 1887, the Double Concerto was Brahms’ final orchestral work, composed as a gesture of reconciliation with his longtime friend, the violinist Joseph Joachim. Richly romantic and deeply expressive, it creates a powerful dialogue between the solo violin and cello, weaving moments of tenderness, intensity, and fiery virtuosity. In this performance, we are delighted to showcase the artistry of Tom Budden (violin) and Chris Hearn (cello).

Schubert – Symphony No. 8, the “Unfinished”

Although Schubert completed only two movements of this symphony in 1822, the “Unfinished” has become one of the most loved and enduring works in the repertoire. Its haunting opening theme, lyrical beauty, and sense of mystery have fascinated audiences for generations. Far from incomplete, the two movements stand as a profound and emotionally charged masterpiece in their own right.
