    Experience the depth and splendour of English music in an all-Elgar evening featuring internationally acclaimed cellist Raphael Wallfisch and the Canterbury Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Music Director Joe Davies. The concert opens with Elgar’s poignant Cello Concerto in E minor, a deeply personal and lyrical masterpiece brought to life by Wallfisch’s exceptional artistry.

    In the second half, the orchestra performs Elgar’s Symphony No. 1, a majestic and emotionally rich work, celebrated for its nobility, tenderness, and sweeping grandeur. Since its triumphant 1908 premiere, it has stood as one of the great symphonies of the 20th century.

    Don’t miss this rare opportunity to hear two of Elgar’s finest works in one unforgettable evening — a celebration of English romanticism performed with passion and finesse.
