Clara-Jumi Kang performs the Violin Concerto, offering compelling insight and virtuosity.

The Orchestra then plays Barber’s instantly recognisable Adagio, well known from its use in films such as Platoon and The Elephant Man.The programme opens with Schulhoff’s jazz‑tinged Suite for Chamber Orchestra and ends with Kurt Weill’s darkly brilliant Second Symphony, a striking contrast to Barber’s intimate intensity.
