Performer: Taavi Oramo

The Hallé also perform two long-neglected mini-masterpieces and a joyful Italian Symphony at the Bridgewater Hall.

Baritone Jaakko Koretkangas and pianist Nino Gvetadze prove the stars of an evening of great variety ending with a thrilling scene from an obscure Hindemith opera.
