Mysterious, urgent, complex and
unprecedented, Mozart’s last three
symphonies seemed to appear from
nowhere but at the same time carried
a underlying power and passion that
no generation has been able to ignore.
Thomas Zehetmair conducts all three with
the enchanting Salzburg Divertimenti,
beginning here with the joyous explosion
that is the Symphony No.39 and
luminous songs by Benjamin Britten
from the ice-pure voice of Julie Fuchs.
With a post-concert ‘Northern Sinfonia
Spotlight’.
Buses from Alnwick and Hexham.
Tickets: £10-£33.
Dedicated to the memory of Jan Dyer.
