Omer Meir Wellber, Chief Conductor of the BBC Philharmonic
Unmissable Classical Music for £3 On 14 December, the BBC Philharmonic’s final Bridgewater Hall concert of 2019 also marks a new beginning. It’s the first time that Omer Meir Wellber, the orchestra’s Chief Conductor, takes to the Manchester podium in his new, titled role. It’s not the only first of the evening either as Omer opens with the UK premiere of Sofia Gubaidulina’s Triple Concerto. Written for the combination of violin, cello, and accordion – it received standing ovations at its 2017 debut and tonight is paired with Bruckner’s towering Seventh Symphony. And, whilst the orchestra welcomes Omer, it also says a sad goodbye to the brilliant Tasmin Little. Tasmin takes her final Bridgewater Hall bow on 1 February (performing Szymanowski’s gripping Second Violin Concerto) before stepping down from the concert platform next summer. Salford residents can enjoy an exclusive ticket offer of £3 for stalls tickets for both concerts. Numbers are limited so do book early. Contact The Bridgewater Hall and quote SALFORDDEC when booking for 14 December and SALFORDFEB when booking for 1 February. For online bookings please enter the promo code before selecting your seat.
