Tonight we're off to see the Salomon Orchestra at their regular venue, St. Johns Smith Square. The programme consists Lalo's Overture to Le Roi d'Ys, Prokofiev's 1st Violin Concerto and Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique. This latter should make a fantastique effect at St. John's as it is rather a large scale work for the venue.
The conductor is Nicholas Collon and the violin soloist in the Prokofiev is Fiona McNaught.
