Summary
The City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra performs Schubert’s Eighth Symphony alongside Strauss’s Rosenkavalier Suite at Symphony Hall.
Why it's fantastic
This informal early-evening performance pairs the most famous cliffhanger in symphonic history with a sweeping suite of twentieth-century waltzes. Clocking in at under an hour, it offers a pressure-free way to experience these heavyweight scores before the bars and restaurants of the city centre get busy.
