One of Lammermuir Festival’s most enduringly popular artists, Royal Northern Sinfonia, will celebrate the fifteenth festival coming to a triumphant close tonight (Monday).
They play the two most influential of early Romantic composers, Mendelssohn and Schumann, making for a great pairing for the final concert. Schumann’s Violin Concerto – composed at the end of his life and still very much a rarity in concert – is a gloriously lyrical, heroic work perfectly suited to Maria Wloszczowska’s sweet-toned virtuosity.
This is the last chance to catch Maria Wloszczowska who has had astonishing success in her concerts throughout the 2024 festival.
The sparkling beauty of Mendelssohn’s enthralling Shakespearian score brings the 2024 Lammermuir Festival to a magical conclusion.
Monday 16 September, 8pm
