Dvořák's Symphony No.8 with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra

Conductor: Eduardo Strausser
Violin: Liya Petrova

Schumann: Manfred Overture
Korngold: Violin Concerto
Dvořák: Symphony No.8

The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra returns to Hull under the baton of conductor Eduardo Strausser for a musical journey across eras and emotions.

The concert opens with Schumann's dramatic 'Manfred Overture', drawing inspiration from Lord Byron's poetry. Let the stirring melodies transport you into the emotional world of the tormented title character.

Next, violin soloist Liya Petrova takes centre stage for Korngold's 'Violin Concerto'. This 20th century work seamlessly combines lyricism and technical fireworks into a gorgeous Romantic showcase. To close, Dvořák's treasured 'Symphony No.8'. Overflowing with engaging folk-inspired melodies, the composer's pride in his Bohemian heritage resonates throughout this warm and majestic symphony.

Pre-concert talk 6.15pm.
