A concert full of colour and character awaits as Václav Luks leads the SCO in a programme that dances between Hungarian fire and Austrian grace.
We begin with Kodály’s Dances of Galánta, a dazzling homage to the composer’s childhood memories, full of folk rhythms and gypsy flair.
At the heart of the programme is Mozart’s Violin Concerto No.5, the beloved ‘Turkish’. Playful and refined, this concerto surprises with its exotic, percussive finale, a bold flourish that has captivated audiences for centuries. In her second appearance in the 2026/27 Season, internationally acclaimed violinist Alena Baeva brings her radiant tone and expressive style to this jewel of the violin repertoire.
We conclude with Dvořák’s Symphony No.5, a much-loved work with rustic charm, infused with the composer’s love of nature and Bohemian spirit.
