Tour name: Bexhill's Big Summer Sounds

Doors open: 19:00

As part of their Bexhill summer takeover, The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra returns to the De La Warr Pavilion under the baton of Associate Conductor Emilia Hoving to perform Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto with rising star Hana Chang. A work full of fire and ferocity, both soloist and orchestra have the chance to dazzle in one of the most enduring concertos of the violin repertoire.

Before that, there is a chance to hear Sibelius' stirring Finlandia. Written when Finland was part of the Russian Empire and struggling for independence, it swiftly became a rallying cry for the Finnish people and a symbol of patriotism across the world.

The Orchestra closes the concert with Dvořák’s seminal work, Symphony No.9, ‘From the New World’. Famous for its use in the iconic 1973 TV ad for Hovis, the music features echoes of the Native American and early African American folk traditions. The tune that runs throughout the piece so perfectly captures the flavour of the United States that it is often described as an original American folk tune.

Live reviews

Formed in 1987 The Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra it has become so what a national institution. It has managed to build a stellar reputation, not just here in the U.K but across the globe. To date they have manage to light up some of the biggest and most renown venues, with a wonderful array of music. I do believe there is a common misconception when people hear the word orchestra, with many assuming regimented classical music. However, The Royal Philharmonic has gained much of its main stream popularity with their wonderful arrangements of modern pop songs and compositions made famous on the West End stage. The respect they command in music circles is quite incredible, with many superstar musicians often seen working in their projects. They have had numerous collaborations over the years include one with legendary artists Andrea Bocelli, Lesley Garett, Sting and Stevie Wonder.
As a live act they also untouchable, The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra is the creme de la creme! Made up of array of gifted musicians with so many other thousands of young budding musicians honing their craft, in the hope that one day they maybe able to join one of the most coveted Orchestras of the modern day.
They have had many different tours such as ‘Mancini Rocks the Pops’, ‘Pop Go the Beatles’ and ‘Andrew Lloyd Webber Classics’ as well as many others. Theres is not doubt they have something for everyone!
