Every year, G Live’s Guildford International Concert Season brings renowned international and UK-based orchestras to our doorstep.
Last week, the 13th season began with a rousing evening of musicianship from the Lviv National Philharmonic Orchestra of Ukraine, playing works by Rossini, Sibelius, Elgar and Dvorak.
Elgar’s Cello Concert in E minor, Opus 85, was a particular highlight, featuring charismatic playing from the acclaimed Czech cellist Jiri Barta. At the evening’s close, conductor Theodore Kuchar brought the G Live audience to its feet as he thanked Great Britain for its support for Ukraine through two and a half years of war.
Highlights of the coming Season include the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra playing works including Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony at G Live on November 30th; and Christmas: Songs of Celebration with the National Youth Chamber Choir and Emma Johnson, on December 5th. Delights to look forward to next year include the London Mozart Players on February 7th and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra returning on March 1.
Meanwhile, G Live’s popular Lunchtime Concerts return from January, in the Bellerby Studio, with tickets at £9.50.
