Once upon a time Felix Mendelssohn took a boat trip to the Hebrides and heard the waves sing a timeless tune. The sensational Cumbrian saxophonist, Jess Gillam, performs Briggflatts, specially written for her by John Harle. Sibelius’s powerful first symphony will make a fine finale to the programme.
Programme:
Mendelssohn - The Hebrides (Fingal’s Cave)
Harle - Briggflatts
Sibelius - Symphony No.1
Victoria Hall, Stoke-on-Trent
The Victoria Hall was built in 1888 to commemorate Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee. It was revamped in the mid-nineties and has since then been at the heart of the Cultural Quarter, alongside its sister venue The Regent Theatre. It has established itself as one of the most popular venues on the touring circuit playing host to the likes of Paul Weller, Morrissey and Jimmy Carr.
