Reflections on a Summer's Evening

Don't miss the chance to hear some wonderful music on a summer's evening as Nottingham Symphony Orchestra's 2024-2025 season concludes in fine style on Saturday, 5th July, at the city's St Mary's Church.

Directed by acclaimed conductor Mark Prescott, the orchestra will be performing three pieces in the splendid setting of the church, based on High Pavement.

NSO will play Nuages and Fêtes, two of Debussy's beautiful and atmospheric Nocturnes, a key work that helped establish him as a ground-breaking composer at the start of the 20th century.

Richard Strauss's Four Last Songs was written right at the end of his long life and is the perfect summation of a glorious career. The Four Last Songs are a peaceful reflection on old age, written for female singer and orchestra, and remain among his most beloved compositions.

The guest soloist for this concert will be the talented and experienced performer Nina Bennet.

The season ends in spectacular style with Ravel's brilliant orchestration of Mussorgsky's multi-faceted piano work Pictures
At An Exhibition, starting with the famous Promenade and concluding with the epic Great Gate of Kiev.
