Valentine?
s Day and St Cecilia? s Day Concerts at the Guildhall and
St Andrews Church. This series comes to an exciting crescendo
this March with a visit from the European Union Chamber

Returning
to Plymouth for their third consecutive year, the Philharmonia
Orchestra open the evening with Beethoven’s powerful and
expressive Egmont Overture before piano virtuoso Boris Berezovsky
performs Brahms First Piano Concerto. Although the concerto
is a work of the composer? s youth, written when Brahms
was just
25, the work is most striking in its grandeur and scale, as
well as the
thrilling technical difficulties that it presents to the
soloist.
