Music of the Romantic era with Sebastian Weigle 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. The programme also includes 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 soloist, Himari, aged just 13, makes her debut, and conductor Sebastian Weigle takes over at short notice from an indisposed Zubin Mehta.
