Join us for what promises to be a wonderful afternoon of music!

 

Shostakovich’s sparkling Piano Concerto No. 2, a work bursting with wit, charm, and vitality, composed as a gift for his son, is a joyful and uplifting piece that delights from start to finish. At the piano, we welcome back the outstanding Viv McLean, whose expressive playing and effortless virtuosity bring this dazzling concerto to life.

Then, prepare to be swept away by Beethoven’s mighty Symphony No.3 ‘Eroica’. Originally dedicated to Napoleon, this groundbreaking work shattered conventions and redefined what a symphony could be — bold, dramatic, and deeply human. From its powerful opening chords to the triumphant finale, Eroica is a thrilling journey through struggle, hope, and victory.

Whether you’re a classical music lover or a curious newcomer, this concert promises inspiration, energy, and unforgettable musical storytelling.

Book your tickets today and experience the brilliance of Beethoven and Shostakovich in an afternoon of music to truly lift your spirits.
