Celebrate the rich emotional depth and grandeur of English music with an evening devoted entirely to Sir Edward Elgar. The Canterbury Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of Music Director Joe Davies, presents two of Elgar’s greatest and most heartfelt works.

The programme opens with the iconic Cello Concerto in E minor — a deeply moving and introspective masterpiece, filled with lyrical beauty and quiet intensity. A cornerstone of the cello repertoire, it offers a profound and personal glimpse into Elgar’s later years.

In the second half, the orchestra performs Elgar’s Symphony No. 1, a sweeping and majestic work that combines nobility, tenderness and Elgar’s unmistakable melodic genius. Hailed at its premiere as a triumph, it remains one of the great symphonies of the early 20th century.

This all-Elgar programme promises an unforgettable evening of passion, elegance and English romanticism.
