The Full Works Concert - Wednesday 30 January 2013: Classic FM's Guide to the Orchestra - Brass

Jane Jones brings a bit of oom pah pah to your evening as she rounds off her exploration of sections of the symphony orchestra by celebrating music for brass.

Featuring performances by Alison Balsom, Tine Thing Helseth and Sergei Nakariakov, Jane will play concertos by Mozart and Hummel in full – and if you’re in need of a little extra something to shake off the midweek blues, perhaps Tubby The Tuba, narrated by Stephen Fry, will help!
