More than the concerto

The official evening programme includes Pejačević’s Overture, Suk’s Fantastic Scherzo and Janáček’s Sinfonietta.

That wider orchestral context is part of the attraction: this is not a solo recital marketed under an orchestral title.

Keep the sessions separate

The concert starts at 19:30 GMT on Thursday 29 October.

The orchestra also lists other activity that day, but an open rehearsal or a separate chamber programme has its own admission conditions. Do not assume one booking admits you to everything.

A sensible booking check

Compare the actual seat price and transaction charges before committing, then check the homeward route.

This is a source-based preview, not a performance review or a statement that tickets remain available in a particular part of the hall.
