A strangely mixed programme, in which soprano Elizabeth Watts and Kyra Humphreys directing Royal Northern Sinfonia displayed great musicanship and a tremendous range of emotion.

Co-leader of Northern Sinfonia Kyra Humphreys took centre stage last night, as both leader and soloist, directing the players through a strangely mixed programme of Mozart and Shostakovich.

Amsterdam Sinfonietta offered a program with three Russians and a French composer, and, perhaps more interestingly, featured three works orchestrated by other composers.
