Finchley Symphony Orchestra’s concert conducted by Christopher Stark will open with something of a rarity. Scriabin is perhaps known as a somewhat eccentric composer of large-scale pieces but his rarely performed ‘Rêverie’ is a short, languid evocation of dreaming.

Dvorak’s is rightly one of the best loved concertos for the cello, typically packed with wonderful melodies and the punchy rhythms of Bohemia. Our soloist is Peteris Sokolovskis, a winner of the Royal College of Music Cello Competition and member of the Kremerata Baltica chamber orchestra.

Another firm favourite is the third symphony by Brahms which Dvorak, to whom he was friend and mentor, described as “surpassing his first two symphonies; if not, perhaps, in grandeur and powerful conception then certainly in beauty”.

All of this music can be enjoyed here on your doorstep in North London.
