  2. Concerto for Violin and Orchestra No 1 in G minor Op 26 - Max Bruch
  3. Fringeflower - Anna Meredith
  4. Symphony No 3 in A minor, 'Scottish' Op 56 - Felix Mendelssohn

Join Orchestra of the Swan for From a Far Country this October at Stratford Playhouse. Featuring violinist Tai Murray performing Bruch's Violin Concerto No 1 in G minor Op 26 and joined by The Swan's principal conductor Michael Collins.

Inspired by a visit in 1829 to the basalt cave known as Fingal's Cave, Mendelssohn was impelled to sketch out the opening of his windswept and gull-strewn overture. His tour of Scotland that year bore further fruit in the form of his Symphony No 3 'Scottish', where he found his imagination sparked by the ruin and decay of an abandoned ivy-cloaked chapel.

Featuring Mendelssohn's Hebrides Overture and Symphony No 3 'Scottish' and Anna Meredith's Fringeflower. Attend the pre-concert talk prior to the show at 6:30pm for free.
