French Heatwave
When: Friday 16th September 2011 - 7.30pm
Where: St David's Hall, The Hayes, Cardiff CF10 1AH
Experience for yourself the visceral excitement of live music-making when Søndergård opens our new season. A concert where French refinement rubs shoulders with a flash of Spanish temperament from Ravel, Debussy's elemental seascape and the savagery and opulence of Messiaen. And Steven Isserlis, one of the world's leading cellists, renowned for the depth and concentration of his performances, brings to life the passion of Saint-Saëns.
