Soloist -  Tamsin Waley-Cohen (Violin)

Conductor: Brian Wright
Weber - Overture, Euryanthe
Delius - On hearing the first cuckoo in spring
Mendelssohn  - Violin Concerto
Schumann  - Symphony No.1 "Spring"

 

A concert to herald the Spring.  Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto has a wonderful spring-like freshness and we welcome a fine prize-winning young soloist in Tamsin Waley-Cohen.  Weber's Euryanthe Overture tells a tale of burgeoning love.  Schumann originally gave the movements of his dynamic Spring Symphony some charmingly descriptive titles, while Delius' title for his little tone poem says it all.
 
The Concert starts at 7.30pm in Mote Hall, which is within the Maidstone Leisure Centre, Mote Park, Maidstone.

Tamsin Waley-Cohen began her 2010 season with a solo violin recital in the Southbank centre, opening the Park Lane Group series, to high critical acclaim. Described recently by the Guardian as a performer of "fearless intensity" and by the Times as a violinist who "held us rapt in daring and undaunted performances", she performs as a soloist with orchestras including the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Orchestra of St John's, London Concert Orchestra and London Chamber Orchestra, Orchestra of the Swan, and Brighton Philharmonic, and under conductors including Andrew Litton, Jose Serebrier, Shlomo Mintz, Nicolae Moldoveanu, and Achim Holub. She has played at Cadogan Hall, Symphony Hall, Birmingham, Bridgewater Hall, Manchester, Queen Elizabeth Hall, Barbican, Liszt Academy Hall, Budapest and in venues across the UK and Europe.
