Music of the Romantic era with Zubin Mehta and Himari

Schubert’s “Great” C major Symphony is considered the epitome of Romantic orchestral music – it creates a world of sound that is both idyllic and full of yearning. Zubin Mehta has also included two other works from this period in the programme: Carl Maria von Weber’s overture to the magical opera Oberon and Henryk Wieniawski’s Violin Concerto No. 1 with its combination of soulful expression and breathtaking virtuosity. The just 13-year-old Himari makes her debut as the soloist.
