3. Cue Music! European Excursion

4. Prokofiev, Schumann and Haydn
Composed in Russia during one if its darkest times, Prokofiev’s ‘Classical Symphony’ is a glimpse of light, channelling his influences from Classical-era composers Haydn and Mozart. Aptly paired with Prokofiev’s First Symphony is Haydn’s last of 12 ‘London’ symphonies, which brims with all the invention, wit, drama and surprises that characterise the music of the ‘Father of the Symphony’.

5. Film Music: From Mahler to Williams
May the Force be with the Orchestra of Opera North as it embarks on a journey through space, time, and the realms of witchcraft. Feel the commanding brass of the Star Wars Imperial March, the haunting strings from Psycho, and the enchanting celeste theme from Harry Potter send tingles down your spine. Conductor Garry Walker will guide us through the programme, unravelling each piece's influences and connections within film music history.

6. Mike Peters, from The Alarm – Love Hope Strength
It’s been a remarkable career. Mike Peters, frontman of The Alarm, created one of Britain’s best-loved rock bands at the turn of the 1980s. He filled arenas, enjoyed hits with Sixty Eight Guns Spirit Of ’76, and Absolute Reality, and opened for U2 and Bob Dylan. There’s always been much, much more to the man who was awarded an MBE in 2019.

8. Slaithwaite Philharmonic Orchestra
We conclude with a visit to Spain, Alice Mary Smith’s delightful Symphony in a minor and Mahler’s First Symphony, ‘Titan’. Written while still a student, it arguably contains a great many of the musical seeds for the even bigger and more ground-breaking symphonies that he would go on to compose.
