“World premiere of new trumpet concerto

The concert opens and closes with two groundbreaking youth works by Richard Strauss, and between these there will be space for beautiful ballet music by Tchaikovsky and a world premiere of a brand new trumpet concerto by British composer Stephen McNeff with the orchestra's own Jonathan Clarke in the soloist role.”
