Richard Tognetti, who marks 35 years at the helm of the ACO, brings all his characteristic flair and feeling to perform one of the pinnacles of the violin repertoire. Brahms’s Violin Concerto is a monumental work of exquisite, lyrical melodies and acrobatic rhythms. Experiencing Richard perform this extraordinary concerto is a season highlight.

Beethoven’s Symphony No.7 is beloved for its intensity, driving rhythms and blissful exuberance. At its premiere, the audience was so delighted they demanded an encore mid-way through!
