'Between Time and Tradition' The theme 'Between Time and Tradition' was chosen because it illustrates the constant interaction between tradition and renewal. Just as composers were inspired by their own zeitgeist, the dynamic of tradition and renewal is a constant throughout history.

Prokofiev looks back to the classical period from the 20th century and puts his own spin on it. Mozart embodies the classical tradition in its purest form. Schubert forms a bridge between the classical and romantic styles, pointing ahead to the future.Thus, this concert programme moves literally and figuratively 'Between Time and Tradition'.
