Beethoven, Bliss & Shostakovich at Snape Maltings
Beethoven’s spirited Leonore Overture No. 1 sets the stage for Arthur Bliss’s emotionally rich and rarely performed Cello Concerto, a powerful showcase for Wallfisch’s artistry.
Shostakovich’s haunting Chamber Symphony is a deeply personal and moving work that reflects the composer’s inner world.
This compelling programme promises a night of depth, drama, and virtuosity from one of the world’s most distinguished chamber orchestras.
