Stravinsky: The Firebird Suite

Following her spellbinding performance at the Last Night of the 2012 BBC Proms, violinist Nicola Benedetti needs absolutely no introduction. We’re delighted that she is joining Oxford Philomusica to perform Shostakovich’s Violin Concerto in Basingstoke, Aylesbury and Oxford. The Orchestra will also showcase symphonic suites by two other great Russian composers: Prokofiev’s Lieutenant Kijé and Stravinsky’s thrilling Firebird – the work that made the composer a star when he wrote it for the legendary Ballet Russes Company in 1910.

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.

A Tribute to Michael Garrick

Nette Robinson, vocals
The Lyric Ensemble:
Tony Woods, saxes
Matt Ridley, double bass
Kate Williams, piano

Jazz in the House

The Lyric Ensemble was the late Michael Garrick’s final creation, setting poems by Yeats and Shakespeare to music, as well as writing words to the compositions of the great Bill Evans.

Claire Martin has described Nette Robinson as 'a great vocalist I have just discovered'. She is a talented arranger who runs her own Little Big Band to play the music of legends like Basie and Gillington.

Tony Woods is one of our most brilliant saxophonists, whose ‘project’ band has delighted our audiences on several occasions in the past, so expect the unexpected, and remember the music of one of the most important post-war UK musicians.
