| 7.30pm Royal Festival Hall Belvedere Road London SE1 8XX United Kingdom Details: Web site +44 (0)844 847 9910 | Vienna's Finest Pinchas Zukerman, conductor/violin Arianna Zukerman, soprano Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Mozart: Violin Concerto No 3, 'Strassburg' Mahler: Symphony No 4 Elegant and moving music from two of the finest composers ever to call Vienna their home. Mozart's Third Violin Concerto, written when he was only nineteen, is full of youthful charm, with a slow movement of tender romance. The final rondo features a lively dance tune associated with Strasbourg, from which the Concerto gets its nickname. Mahler's Fourth Symphony, which opens with jingling sleigh-bells, is one of his most delicate. Yet there is all the contrast you'd expect from Mahler: a quirky scherzo and a slow movement of yearning beauty, ending with the finale's soprano solo unfolding a child's vision of Heaven. |

| 7.30pm Cadogan Hall 5 Sloane Terrace London SW1X 9DQ United Kingdom Details: Web site +44 (0)20 7730 4500 £15, 25, 32.50, 40 | Mozart, Weber and Tchaikovsky Ayako Tanaka, soprano Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Pablo Boggiano, conductor Mozart: Mia speranza adorata, K 416 Mozart: Vorrei spiegarvi, oh Dio! K 418 Weber: Overture to Euryanthe Mozart: Popoli di Tessaglia!, K.316 Tchaikovsky: Symphony No 6 in B minor, Op 74, 'Pathétique' A glorious programme encompassing music of sublime wit, high drama and intense emotion. Mozart produced some of the most joyous operatic music ever written, and we are treated to several delights boasting vocal lines of deep expression and breathtaking agility. Weber’s operas have been hugely influential, inspiring the likes of Wagner to embark on his pioneering music dramas. But it is his operatic overtures which are most frequently performed, and their popularity is understandable: the music brims with energy, intrigue and originality. The programme culminates in the devastating beauty of Tchaikovsky’s 'Pathétique' Symphony, a masterpiece of aching emotion and symphonic brilliance. |

| 7.30pm St Stephen's Church Gloucester Road London SW7 4AL United Kingdom Details: Liz Aram Web site +44 (0)7812 599 340 £12/£8 | Henry and George Collegium Musicum of London Chamber Choir & Orchestra, conducted by Greg Morris Purcell: Come Ye Sons of Art, Welcome To All The Pleasures Handel: Ode For The Birthday of Queen Anne Henry and George - a choral celebration of Henry Purcell and George Frederick Handel. Following CML's immensely successful concert of Venetian baroque music last October, the choir returns to the St Stephen's Festival in Kensington in June for Henry and George, featuring more baroque masterpieces, this time from closer to home. In Henry Purcell and George Frideric Handel, England was able to boast two of the most innovative and singular composers of the baroque age. Before 1700, the native Purcell wrote numerous odes for royal occasions - all great paeans of celebration. Come Ye Sons of Art is a sparkling commemoration of the birthday of Queen Mary, and includes the virtuosic counter-tenor duet, Sound the Trumpet. Written for the annual celebrations of the patron saint of music, St Cecilia, Welcome To All The Pleasures is a highly inventive honouring of all things musical. After 1700, London welcomed Handel, a cosmopolitan German, whose music subsequently adorned many spectacular English celebrations. His Ode For The Birthday of Queen Anne is typical of his style, and starts with Eternal Source of Light Divine which featured in the recent Olympic closing ceremony. For this St Stephen's Festival appearance, Collegium Musicum is joined by a glittering array of period instrumentalists for what promises to be a spectacular musical recreation of seventeenth and eighteenth century London; a city where libertine politics, wealth and culture conspired to create a hedonistic playground in which people sought pleasure and amusement on an unprecedented scale. Joining the choir again will be Tim Travers-Brown, counter-tenor (pictured right), together with other accomplished soloists Philippa Hyde, soprano, Tom Williams, counter-tenor, Matthew Sandy, tenor, and Giles Underwood, bass. Tickets 12.00 / 8.00, available on the door, in advance on 020 8946 7505; on the day of the concert on 07812 599 340. |

The composer's powerful harmonic structures, deliberately reinforced by the natural properties of the overtone series, create a soundworld of incredible depth and power. Likewise, the works by young American composers Felipe Lara and Mario Diaz de Leon draw upon acoustic phenomena to stretch the palette and expressive capabilities of the string quartet. Mivos also perform a classic of the American repertoire, Philip Glass’ String Quartet No 3, 'Mishima'. |
