The orchestra returned to St Cyprian's with a rare performance of Arthur Honegger's wonderfully lyrical 4th Symphony. The programme also featured Beethoven's great G major concerto, played by gifted young German pianist Jan Loeffler, Mendelssohn's captivating Fair Melusine - and a charming rarity in the form of the Vicomtesse Marie-Clémence de Grandval's Romance for oboe and cello, here presented in a new orchestration by Owen Leech.
This, our fifth UK concert, took place on Saturday, 18th April 2009 at 7.30pm in the church of St Cyprian's, Clarence Gate.
