Birmingham Philharmonic Orchestra comes to Sutton Coldfield
The Birmingham Philharmonic Orchestra will bring a compelling program of Elgar’s Falstaff and Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 10 in a concert at Royal Sutton Coldfield Town Hall.
It takes place on Sunday 8 February (3pm), with standard tickets prices £22, and under-25s tickets £15.
One of Elgar’s most vivid orchestral works, Falstaff is a richly detailed portrait of Shakespeare’s infamous rogue - by turns comic, noble, and tragic.
In the second half, Shostakovich’s powerful Symphony No. 10 offers a stark contrast.
Written shortly after Stalin’s death, the symphony is described as an “intense and introspective, moving from brooding darkness to defiant energy”.
Celebrating over 80 years of music-making, the Birmingham Philharmonic Orchestra is one of the UK’s leading orchestras, known for its ambitious repertoire and high-calibre performances.
