Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto
Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto at The Fire Station, Sunderland
About the show
Wagner’s Siegfried Idyll opens with warmth and quiet intimacy, full of heart. Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto in E minor sweeps in – lyrical, restless, with soaring melodic lines that let the solo violin shine. Mozart’s Symphony No. 38 ‘Prague’ brings it home with wit, energy, and flashes of brilliance at every turn. A night that moves from tender moments to bold, bright bursts - and keeps you hooked all the way through.
