The BSO makes a welcome return under the baton of Chief Conductor Kirill Karabits and a stirring concert featuring Beethoven’s overture written to celebrate the opening of a Vienna theatre exactly 200 years ago, Bax’s evocation of the wild Cornish coast and Sibelius’ passionate, anguished but ultimately heroic symphony.
