The last of Greater Manchester-born William Walton's three concertos forms the centre-piece of the BBC Philharmonic's live performance from Media City. This evening, they are joined by cellist Guy Johnston, a Chetham's School of Music alumnus. The programme closes with music from Stravinsky's 1945 iconic ballet, The Firebird Suite. Dance rhythms and opulent melody also shine through Dvořák's Eighth Symphony which opens the evening with some of the best-known melodies in the orchestral repertoire.
