Williams, Jean Sibelius and Josep Suk willcreate a mosaic of romantic and neoclassical forms which constitutes excellentspace for the artists—both the string orchestra and the soloist—to displaytheir mastery. The soloist, a talented Welsh violinist Charlie Lovell-Jones will perform, among others, the famous Lark Ascending, a piece filled with ablissful admiration of nature, inspired by the poetry of George Meredith. The evening’s programme will also feature the delightful Serenade by Josep Suk,as well as one of the most important pieces by Grażyna Bacewicz – Concertofor String Orchestra.
