Join Durham University Palatinate Orchestra in their opening concert of the season. The Symphony Orchestra will be performing Gershwin’s vibrant An American in Paris, as well as completing the tour of concert overtures commenced last year with a performance of Brahms’ Academic Festival Overture. The Parisian theme returns with Augusta Holmès’ La Nuit et l’Amour, and Ravel’s La Valse, two stunning works that were both premiered in Paris. Come along and let the magic of Gershwin transport you to Paris for the night. It’s not one to miss!

Painting the tranquillity of the springtime countryside, DUPO's Chamber Orchestra will perform Copland’s Appalachian Spring, paired with a string arrangement of Tavener’s The Lamb. Also featured on the programme is Symphony No. 2 by Swedish composer Elfrida Andrée.
