Concert review An enthusiastic audience of almost 300 joined Nottingham Symphony Orchestra on Saturday 9th May in St Mary's Church, Nottingham, for an evening of orchestral hits. The programme started with Vaughan Williams' ever popular overture to The Wasps, followed by Dvorak's Cello Concerto, played by one of the UK's most versatile cellists, Jonathan Aasgaard (pictured). The second half featured the gorgeously tuneful Symphony in D minor by César Franck. A memorable night!
