Classical music concerts at Belfast Waterfront Hall: The Ulster Orchestra plays Beethoven's Emperor.

Tomas Hanus conducts, Francois-Frederic Guy plays solo piano.

Beethoven's Hungarian flavoured overture hints at his

ninth Symphony and precedes his last and greatest piano concerto. This is a much loved classic noted for its inspired melodies, heroic spirit and robust energy.

Brahms's fourth Symphony is his supreme achievement. He breathed new life and passion into one of the great musical forms of an earlier generation.
