Brigantes - from Russia

Welcome to the 2025/2026 season of The Brigantes Orchestra! This season will feature classical music from six geographical hot spots: France, the Nordics, Russia, Germany and Austria, England, and the United States!

The chilly weather continues into our third stop, Russia, but the music is warm and getting warmer! Tchaikovsky's much-loved music distils Romeo and Juliet into its constituent parts, while Stravinsky presents his youthful virtuosity with the ballet The Firebird.
