Horn soloists Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment

This concert is a real treat for lovers of music from the Romantic Era. The concert opens with a little known work by the British composer William Sterndale Bennett. Mendelssohn was a fan of his and you can see why - the Overture has long arching melodies and a dramatic drive, which sets the scene for Schumann's strikingly fresh four-horn showpiece.
Mendelssohn's evocative depiction of the Scottish landscape closes the concert.

Queen Elizabeth Hall at 5.45pm: OAE Extras: A discussion with the OAE's horn section. Admission free.
