From Handel’s sparkling Arrival of the Queen of Sheba, full of Baroque splendour, to the refined grace of Mozart’s Concerto for Flute and Harp, the concert begins with music of charm and celebration.
Dvorák’s Nocturne draws the audience into a more introspective world, with lyrical string writing that engages the heart in gentle tones. Finally, Haydn’s Symphony No.42 brings the programme to a refreshing, spirited close—full of invention, surprise, and the composer’s unmistakable joie de vivre. An undoubted spa session for the soul!
