Pure Romanticism! In the first part of this Mitten im Orchester concert, the celebrated Salzburg soloist Christine-Maria Höller shines with virtuoso solo parts and touchingly expressive melodies from Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto - a symbiosis of technical sophistication and emotional depth.

From The Apprentice to Game of Thrones, Poldark to Pride and Prejudice, the BBC Concert Orchestra brings TV’s best-loved tunes to Nottingham with Radio 3’s Friday Night is Music Night: TV Classics.

Friday Night is Music Night: TV Classics

Theatre Royal & Royal Concert Hall

Experience the grace and depth of English classical music featuring Henry Purcell’s heart-wrenching “Dido’s Lament” and Edward Elgar’s stirring “Nimrod” from Enigma Variations, known for its profound peacefulness. Fans of modern period drama will revel in John Lunn’s theme from Downton Abbey, a score that perfectly captures the aristocratic life and emotion of the beloved series. The ethereal harmonies of Ralph Vaughan Williams’ “Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis” transport listeners through centuries of English musical tradition. The concert promises an evening of nostalgia, refinement, and emotional resonance.
