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 afternoon performance offers a gentle introduction to two orchestral giants, featuring a haunting symphony that famously remains incomplete. It is a manageable double bill, pairing Schubert’s most enduring mystery with the lavish, waltzing melodies of a Viennese ballroom, all wrapped up in well under an hour.
Programme
