The Academy of St Martin in the Fields joins its Music Director, virtuoso violinist Joshua Bell for a programme featuring Brahms’ magnificent Violin Concerto, showcasing some of Brahms’ richest writing, and Schumann’s vibrant, energetic and joyful ‘Spring’ Symphony No. 1 – both directed by Joshua from the violin.

The programme will also include Kevin Puts’ extraordinary Earth – a contribution to Joshua’s Elements project, consisting of five new commissions shaped around water, air, fire, space and earth. Shaped around a four-note ostinato and lyrical phrases that are traded between the violin and orchestra, Puts’ work is an example of the stability and endurance of this element, as well as acting as a reverent tribute to planet Earth.

Destiny’s shadow hangs powerfully over Tchaikovsky’s last symphony: nine days after he conducted its premiere in St Petersburg, the composer was dead. He was 53 years old.

His doctors blamed his mysterious death on cholera, contracted from drinking unboiled water. But whether he drank that glass deliberately remains the subject of intense debate.

Odyssey explores Tchaikovsky’s psychology through the last two big orchestral works he completed. One, a light-hearted piece of brilliant balletic fantasy, the other this melancholic symphony, which he described as being “saturated with myself” and the best thing he would ever write.

Guitar icon Tommy Emmanuel CGP is no stranger to iconic stages from Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium to Paris’ L’Olympia. The legendary entertainer has dazzled audiences across the world.

Tommy has a Grammy Award, multiple ARIA Awards and countless accolades, but nothing means more to Tommy than the three letters Chet Atkins designated at the end of Tommy’s name: CGP. The title of Certified Guitar Player was the highest honour Atkins could bestow on another player – a signifier that the recipient had not only mastered the instrument but taken it to new vistas and become a guiding light for the next generation of pickers.

This programme of works composed 250 years ago in 1776 includes highlights from Mozart’s incidental music to the play Thamos, King of Egypt, which contains some of the most dynamic and startlingly modernistic music that he ever wrote, and a symphony comprising four movements from his ‘Haffner’ Serenade – one of his earliest masterpieces but still curiously neglected and undervalued.

Give Me Your Stars explores the profound and diverse beauty of music inspired by the heavens, human connection, and the places we call home.

Along the way, we encounter the reflective sentiments of Eric Whitacre’s All Seems Beautiful to Me and Ola Gjeilo’s Ubi caritas, folk traditions in Danny Boy and Michael McGlynn’s Dúlamán, and evocative tales of cities and starlight in April in Paris and New York, New York.
