West Road Concert Hall, 29 Aug 2026
A concert featuring the combined orchestras of Cambridge Sinfonietta and Junges Sinfonieorchester Aachen performing a programme of music initially performed in Aachen on the first leg of this exciting exchange project.
The popular and atmospheric Holst’s Planets Suite calls for a large orchestra and explores the characters of the seven planets of the solar system. The Czech composer Josef Suk was a pupil and son-in-law to Antonín Dvořák. His Scherzo Fantastique is a playful and lively composition. Bert Grund was a German composer particularly known for composing film music. This concert is the UK premiere of his Divertimento for Horn with soloist Theo Wiemes.
