British cellist Steven Isserlis is the soloist in Dvořák’s passionate Cello Concerto, one of the best-loved works in the orchestral repertoire.

Isserlis is acclaimed for his profound musicianship, and enjoys a distinguished career as a soloist, chamber musician, educator, author and broadcaster. He is a renowned interpreter of Dvořák’s concerto, his tone blending ‘impassioned feeling and mellow serenity in just the right balance’ (The Arts Desk).

Brahms’s Fourth Symphony is masterful music from a composer at the top of his game. Brahms called it “my sad symphony”, but this modest adjective belies the composer’s emotional range and consummate structural skill. His friend, the critic Eduard Hanslick, put it better: “It is like a dark well; the longer we look into it, the more brightly the stars shine back.”

Unfortunately Jordan de Souza is unwell. We are grateful to Dinis Sousa for stepping in at short notice to conduct Thursday’s concert. Sousa is Principal Conductor of the Royal Northern Sinfonia and of his own Orquestra XXI. You can find out more about him here. The programme remains unchanged.
