Beethoven - Egmont Overture
Stravinsky - Symphonies of Wind Instruments

Elgar — Cello Concerto

• Soloist: Molly Parsons-Gurr

Dvorak - Symphony No. 8 in G major

Folkestone Symphony has built a substantial audience from its local community for its orchestral concerts because of the quality of its music making.  It was rewarding to see so many people prepared to travel to the Nye Hall of Duke of York’s RM School at Dover to enjoy its first event following

Dvorak - Czech Suite

Prokofiev - Violin Concerto No. 2
(Soloist - Joo Yeon Sir)

Beethoven - Symphony No. 7

The steady growth in the size of the audience at recent Folkestone Symphony concerts is an indication of the good quality of what is on offer.

Douglas Lilburn - Aotearoa Overture

Susan Spain-Dunk - Cantilena for Clarinet and Orchestra 
(Soloist: Peter Cigleris)

Weber - Concertino for Clarinet in Eb Major 
(Soloist: Peter Cigleris)

Brahms - Symphony No. 2 in D Major

Tchaikovsky - Piano Concerto No. 1 (Soloist: Vincent Barrella)
 

Schubert - Symphony No. 8

Amy Beach - Gaelic Symphony

Folkestone’s Holy Trinity Church was reasonably full for this performance of several large Romantic works – the first movement of Schubert’s Unfinished, Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto, then the Gaelic Symphony by a less familiar female composer, Amy Beach.

Wagner - Die Meistersinger Overture
