Anthony Bradbury music director
Ondøej Vrabec french horn

This unique event, generously sponsored by Irwin Mitchell solicitors, features the world premiere performance of Concerto for French Horn and Symphony Orchestra by Birmingham born composer Andrew Downes, who is himself wheelchair bound as a result of a spinal injury.

The soloist is Ondøej Vrabec, solo and principal horn of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. Also in the programme is Walton’s Crown Imperial and Brahms’s Second Symphony. The leader of the orchestra is the composer’s daughter Anna Downes, and the conductor Anthony Bradbury. This promises to be a great concert, not to be missed!
