Holst: Double Concerto for Two Violins and Orchestra, Op. 49

Holst: St. Paul's Suite

J. Stamitz: Symphony in E Flat, Op. 8, No. 2

Our first concert this season centres around the music of Gustav Holst, that most English of composers (his family origins were Swedish, hence the un-English name). Our two soloists will play his Double Violin Concerto and the orchestra will perform his perenial favourite St. Paul's Suite along with two other miniatures. Our soloists will also perform a work for two violins by the lesser known of the Reichas--Joseph. Johann Stamitz, father of the better known Carl is represented with one of the works that laid the foundation for the German classical symphony. And finally, an opera overture by one of our favourite composers, Joseph Haydn.
