Tonight’s programme evokes the soundworld of Central Europe with works by Janáček, Smetana, Szymanowski and a UK premiere by Peter Eötvös, all conducted by Edward Gardner.

The centerpiece of the concert is Polish composer Szymanowski’s joyous Second Violin Concerto with the charismatic Tasmin Little as the soloist. Janáček’s powerful Jealousy and Taras Bulba suite frame two of Smetana’s most popular tone-poems and the first UK performance of composer Peter Eötvös’s 2012 work, inspired by the stillness of an eagle in flight.
