Join the Sheffield Philharmonic Orchestra as it launch its 80th annual concert series with a vibrant and thrilling programme that spans the lyrical, the virtuosic, and the epic.
The concert will open with Dorothy Howell’s last large-scale orchestral work Three Divertissements. Originally written for the 1940 Proms but shelved due to wartime cancellations, Three Divertissements has remained largely unheard until recent years. From playful rhythms and dance-like energy to moments of haunting stillness, this lively and colourful suite is a brilliant rediscovery by a British composer whose music is finally being brought back to the spotlight.
Dani Howard’s Trombone Concerto is a powerful and uplifting response to the challenges of 2020, written during lockdown as a celebration of human resilience and connection. Across three vivid movements – from quiet introspection to joyful, high-energy celebration – the solo trombone takes on the role of an individual navigating a complex world, ultimately emerging with hope and purpose. Expect lyrical beauty, rhythmic drive, and dazzling virtuosity from soloist Blair Sinclair, Principal Trombone of Opera North.
Finally, immerse yourself in the sweeping drama and rich romanticism of Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 5 in E minor – a symphonic journey through fate, passion, and triumph. From its brooding opening to its electrifying finale, this is Tchaikovsky at his most emotionally compelling.
Celebrate this milestone season with us and experience a night of powerful live music, unforgettable melodies, and virtuosic performance.
