Mozart Birthday Concert
27 January 2026, 7.30pm – Cadogan Hall
Join us to celebrate Mozart’s 270th birthday with a programme of works composed during the course of 1776. Mozart’s incidental music to the play Thamos, King of Egypt contains some of the most dynamic and startlingly modernistic music that he ever wrote, and the programme culminates with a symphony comprising four movements from his ‘Haffner’ Serenade – one of his earliest masterpieces, but still mysteriously neglected and undervalued. In between we present Mozart’s only concert aria for alto and an exuberantly festive symphony by Haydn.
| Mozart | Entr’acte from Incidental Music to Thamos, König in Ägypten, K.345 |
| Mozart | Concert Aria, “Ombra felice… Io ti lascio”, K.255 |
| Haydn | Symphony No. 69 in C major, ‘Loudon’ |
| Mozart | Two Entr’actes from Incidental Music to Thamos, König in Ägypten, K.345 |
| Mozart | Symphony from Serenade in D major, K.250, ‘Haffner’ |
