York Symphony Orchestra Next Season

Future concerts
(unless otherwise indicated, all concerts take place in the Sir Jack Lyons Concert Hall
University of York, at 8 p.m.)

3rd July, 2010

Mendelssohn: Overture – The Fair Melusine
Scriabin: Piano Concerto in F sharp minor Op. 20 ( Alexandra Dariescu - piano)
Dvorák: Symphony no. 6 in D Op. 60

Mendelssohn considered his overture Melusine the best thing he had ever done, with its beguiling alternation between the beauty of calm water and fairy-tale terrors and woes. Alexandra Dariescu, since playing the Grieg Concerto with us in 2008, has played the same work with the RPO at the Festival Hall. We are delighted that she has returned to play Scriabin’s early Concerto in F sharp minor. Dvorák was befriended by Brahms, and his sweetly pastoral 6th Symphony is closely modelled on the German’s 2nd Symphony.

The orchestra reserves the right to change concert dates, venues, programmes or performers owing to unforeseen circumstances.
Suggestions for works to perform will be most welcome.

Future concerts (unless otherwise indicated, all concerts take place in the Sir Jack Lyons Concert Hall University of York, at 8 p.m.)
