QSO Favourites

A program of classical icons – handpicked by you!

This feel-good concert features some of the most recognisable and loved pieces in the classical canon, as chosen by the 2025 audience vote. From the elegance of Tchaikovsky’s Waltz of the Flowers to the soaring heroics in CoatesDam Busters March, every work is a crowd-pleaser.

You’ll also hear Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony (1st movement), a lyrical walk through the Viennese countryside, and Elgar’s complete Enigma Variations – a musical portrait of friendship, warmth, and mystery.

Elgar returns with a special solo moment: 2025 Young Instrumentalist Prize winner Patrick Phillips performs the passionate finale of his Cello Concerto.

Conducted by Douglas Boyd, this concert is full of music you know and love – with perhaps a surprise or two.
