Henley Symphony Orchestra is delighted to present its annual summer concert in its home town at Henley’s Christ Church Centre - a sparkling programme of smaller-scale orchestral works, opening with Mendelssohn’s much-loved, atmospheric Hebrides Overture, inspired by a trip to the Scottish Isles in 1828. This is followed by Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 (BWV 1048), the third of a group of six concertos that represent the pinnacle of chamber music in the high baroque period. It is noted for its rich texture with the strings divided into three sections and a keyboard continuo underpinning the whole. The concert ends with Mozart’s last and longest symphony, no. 41, which is justly nicknamed ‘Jupiter’ after the Roman King of the Gods and God of sky and thunder.
