WNO Orchestra at St David's Hall - 1 November 2013

The Tudors leave the operatic stage to dominate the concert hall with two works inspired by the period. The concert also pays tribute to Benjamin Britten in his centenary year as well as his friendship with Dmitri Shostakovich.

Vaughan Williams Fantasia on a theme of Thomas Tallis
Britten Sinfonia da Requiem
Britten The Courtly Dances from Gloriana
Shostakovich Symphony No 9
