THE HALLÉ AND THE BRIDGEWATER HALL ANNOUNCE RUSH HOUR – A ONE-HOUR CONCERT FROM JUST £10!

Manchester’s world-famous orchestra has just announced a completely new concert entitled RUSH HOUR at 6.30pm on Thursday 10 November in The Bridgewater Hall.

This concert offers everyone the chance to hear the power of a full symphony orchestra for an hour or so, for just £10 or £2* performed by one of the world’s best orchestras in one of the world’s best concert halls.

This special event will feature the talents of two young Finnish stars: Tarmo Peltokoski is on an astronomical rise and will conduct and present the concerts; fellow countryman Anton Mejias will take to the piano to perform a work for piano soloist and orchestra. Both artists are tipped to reach the very top of their profession.

Musically the event features two pieces – Prokofiev’s brilliant and at times breath-taking Second Piano Concerto and Sibelius’s theatrical Fifth Symphony. Perhaps the Finnish composer’s best-known work, it ends with one of the greatest finales of all time, it’s ‘Swan Hymn’ ringing out in life-affirming glory.

Hallé Chief Executive David Butcher said:

This new Rush Hour concert is a great way for people on their way home (or on their way out), to stop by and experience the full power of a symphony orchestra – and all for a tenner or £2 if you’re in full-time education. Starting at 6.30pm and lasting just over an hour, people can hear world-class musicians and soloists in one of the world’s best concert halls performing fabulous music, all in an informal setting. Whether regular Hallé attenders or people who have never been to a concert before, we hope everyone will be inspired by the music and the unique sound of an orchestra. We’re grateful to our friends at The Bridgewater Hall for helping support this special event.”

Tickets are on sale now for only £10 or £2 (*full time education) with no booking fees from www.halle.co.uk or 0161 907 9000.
