English Sinfonia return to The Elgiva with Tchaikovsky’s epic Fifth Symphony alongside Copland’s thrilling Appalachian Spring.

Written for choreographer and dancer Martha Graham, Copland’s joyful ballet score tells a simple but emotional tale – a celebration of love, nature and pioneering spirit.

In this 15-player version of Tchaikovsky’s engrossing musical journey we find dance too in good measure, and a profound and powerful reflection on desire, conflict and fate.
