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
You may recognize the Swan of Tuonela, a haunting melody for cor anglais that sits at the heart of this Finnish folklore odyssey. Before the interval, Leila Josefowicz tackles a modern concerto defined by its technical intensity, making this a perfect evening for those who enjoy music with a sharp, narrative edge.
