Hull Philharmonic Orchestra look to the north in a programme of stirring music inspired by the landscape and legends of northern Europe and Scandinavia. Pianist Simon Callaghan, who has been praised for his “velvet-gloved pianism of ravishing sensitivity,” makes a welcome return to the city to perform one of the repertoire’s best loved and most exhilarating piano works.
