Symphony No. 10 (1971-1972) Not since Harrison Birtwistle’s Exody have i had so much trepidation writing about an orchestral piece. Pettersson’s Symphony No. 10 picks up the baton from No. 9 and doesn’t just run with it, but positively sprints for a full 25 minutes.

Welcoming live audiences back at Conway Hall
Conway Hall The 2020/21 season at Conway Hall Sunday Concerts is coming to a close with something of a bang as, for the first time this year, the hall is able to welcome audience members to the hall for the final concert. On Sunday 30 May 2021, the Oculi Ensemble is performing a fascinating programme of quartets and quintets. Webern's early Langsamer Satz is being performed alongside quintets by Mozart and Brahms with both composers favouring a line-up which included two violas (rather than a quintet with two cellos such as that by Schubert). This will be a welcome opportunity to hear music live in Conway Hall, though it is being live-streamed as well. Full details from the Conway Hall website.
