An annual fixture in Northern Ireland’s musical calendar, BBC Radio 3 is delighted to present 4 Summer Invitation Concerts with the Ulster Orchestra. Continuing a tradition which began in 1985, all of the concerts will take place in the Victorian splendour of the Ulster Hall, encompassing rarely heard works, music by women composers and symphonic classics.

The Season will also shine the spotlight on top talent: most notably the Belfast pianist Michael McHale in his 40th birthday year and BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist, the Colombian cellist Santiago Cañón-Valencia. Conductor Angus Webster also returns, following his debut with the Orchestra last Summer, along with the Orchestra’s Honorary Principal Guest Conductor, Jac van Steen.
This, the 3rd of the 4 programmes, presents a diverse mix of composer nationalities and periods. Beginning with a short, celebratory overture called Dawning – written by the Welsh composer Huw Watkins in 2010 and commissioned by the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra – the programme continues its colourful journey to France and Germany with works by Ravel and Beethoven, separated by over a century.
