It’s not long now until we’re coming your way on our 2019 National Tour. This June and July we’re heading up and down the country bringing you two programmes of music that will transport you from the 18th to 21st centuries. We’ll be sharing wonderful works full of captivating melodies and rhythmic poise by Mozart, Haydn, Ravel, Dvořák, Janáček, Shostakovich, and Chinese-New Zealand composer Gao Ping.
