Summary
Edward Gardner leads the London Philharmonic Orchestra at Saffron Hall in Sibelius’s Fifth Symphony, following Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto with Clara-Jumi Kang and Errollyn Wallen’s Mighty River.
Why it's fantastic
Mendelssohn’s violin concerto is the perfect introduction for anyone new to the concert hall, offering a melody that feels instantly familiar. When combined with the sunrise-inspired finale of Sibelius’s fifth symphony, this two-hour programme provides a rich immersion into some of the most enduring orchestral writing ever composed.
