The RCS Chamber Orchestra return to the Stevenson Hall, under the baton of Donnie Deacon. The concert opens with two works written when both their composers were just 17: Mendelssohn’s Overture from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, with its magical depictions of fluttering fairy wings and scampering feet (and Bottom’s comedic brays); and Mozart’s Symphony No.25, composed in 1773.
The performance concludes with Bizet’s stirring Symphony in C, a piece never published or performed in the composer’s lifetime, but which has claimed its rightful place in the Romantic repertoire.
Mendelssohn, Midsummer Nights’ Dream Overture
Mozart, Symphony No.25
Bizet, Symphony in C
Donnie Deacon Conductor
