Summary
Elena Schwarz conducts the Hallé at The Bridgewater Hall, featuring violinist Leila Josefowicz in Thomas Adès’s concerto alongside orchestral works by Dvořák and Sibelius.
Why it's fantastic
Listen for the haunting cor anglais solo in the Swan of Tuonela, one of the most atmospheric moments in the entire orchestral repertoire. You also get to hear Leila Josefowicz tackle a modern violin concerto that explores the circular patterns of the natural world, all within a compact eighty-minute programme.
