The concert lasts approximately 125 minutes including intermission.

London has always been a music metropolis, and while the musicians who shaped its scene weren't always British, they produced exceptional work. Johann Christian Bach and Joseph Haydn were among these "London Masters." Haydn's final symphonies, including the groundbreaking No. 103 with its unforgettable timpani intro, set new standards. Conductor Ivor Bolton, originally from near Manchester, brings his historically informed approach to the classical symphony orchestra, promising a performance with unique impact.
