Concert information

Laura Samuel, leader of the 91Èȱ¬ SSO, directs the strings in a short suite from the prolific German Baroque composer Telemann, before three of the orchestra’s principal players join her for a performance of Haydn’s delightful Sinfonia Concertante, composed in 1792. Beethoven’s First Symphony, premiered in 1800 shows the influence of Haydn and Mozart but also has some of the characteristics of a new compositional style; it makes for a perfect end to an afternoon’s entertainment.

To be recorded for future broadcast on 91Èȱ¬ Radio 3.
