22 May 2025 @ 7.30pm to 9.30pm
About Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra: Beethoven Seven
Beethoven Overture ‘Coriolan’, Op. 62
Paganini Violin Concerto No. 1 in D major, Op. 6
Beethoven Symphony No. 7 in A major, Op. 92
Carmine Lauri violin
Marios Papadopoulos conductor
Marios Papadopoulos takes the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra through the momentous symphonic dance of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7, a work whose pounding, marching, and pirouetting permanently realigned Western music’s fundamental relationship between rhythm and harmony.
Another of our own musicians, Concertmaster Carmine Lauri, is the soloist in the most lyrical and operatic violin concerto by the great guru of virtuosity, Niccolò Paganini, a work that will fill the Sheldonian Theatre with rococo elegance. To open, all the ferocity and impact of one of Beethoven’s most striking orchestral overtures, ‘Coriolan’.
Supported by Simon & Alison Ryde
