Enjoyable concert from our local amateur Symphony Orchestra, showcasing in the first half some Verdi arias beautifully sung and presented by soprano Nadine Benjamin. Benjamin made her ROH debut in 2020, and has also appeared at the BBC Proms. The second half was a spirited performance of Brahms Symphony No. 3 in F major (Op. 90). Innovative and interesting programme and enthusiastically delivered.
