Beethoven, Mozart, Crusell, Françaix and Schubert

Thanks partly to a Capital Programme grant from Arts Council England, Sinfonia Viva is now the proud owner of its own pack-up-and-go concert hall. In the best 'let's do the show right here' tradition, it was set up on Derby's Cathedral Green (Derby, UK, 3 July 2015) for a series of launch events, beginning with a free lunchtime concert by eight of the orchestra's players.

And they came up with a nicely varied programme, in terms of both style and instrumentation, starting with a bouncy account of the Scherzo from Beethoven's Septet...
