Great classics for all
Havant Symphony Orchestra invite you to spend a Sunday afternoon relaxing and
soaking up the beauty of some of the finest classical music ever written!
Pianist Florian Mitrea will treat us to the famous Piano Concerto by Grieg
(with all the notes in the right order!) and the Nordic theme is continued as
the orchestra plays the atmospheric Karelia Suite by Sibelius.
Franz von Suppé was a composer of entertaining light operas and his
Overture ‘Poet and Peasant’ comes from one of these tuneful and
amusing shows.
The concert concludes with Borodin’s dramatic second Symphony. It
took the multi-talented Borodin a few years to write this one as he was busy at
the time with his work as a professor of chemistry in St Petersburg!
