Stevenage Symphony Orchestra: Myths and Legends, June 2013

The BBC Performing Arts Fund and Stevenage Symphony Orchestra present “Myths and Legends” as part of Stevenage Festival 2013.

As winners of a BBC Performing Arts Fund “Community Music” grant, the orchestra are pleased to be giving the premiere performance of “Legends of the Tor,” a new work by local composer Alison Wrenn. An evening not to be missed, this concert will also feature a performance by international violin soloist, Simon Hewitt-Jones, contributions from local schools, and a selection of popular classics on the theme of Myths and Legends, including “Hall of the Mountain King” from Grieg’s Peer Gynt suite, Saint-Saens’ “Danse Macabre” (used as the theme tune to TV’s Jonathan Creek) and “Night on Bare Mountain.”

A wonderful concert experience for music lovers, families and those attending one of our concerts for the very first time.

Tickets: £8, concessions £2 off
