Czech Mates: Military Symphony

Wed 28 May 2:15pm at Symphony Hall

The young Czech conductor Jakub Hru°sˇa has been making a name for
himself all over Europe in recent seasons, and for his CBSO debut he
conducts a varied programme including music from his homeland. We
continue our Janácˇek series with the Suite from his comic-book opera set among the forest wildlife, and you also have an all-too-rare opportunity to hear a set of Dvorˇák’s Slavonic Dances played as part of a concert rather than as encores! Haydn was the only major composer to write anywhere near a hundred symphonies • and this is a real gem. Tchaikovsky’s barn-storming overture completes a fun programme.

£29, £26, £22, £19.50, £16.50, £13, £9.50
