Sorcery, Magic & Fireworks

Experience the spellbinding world of **Sorcery, Magic & Fireworks** as the Worthing Symphony Orchestra transports you to a realm of dazzling enchantment. From the sultry hedonism of Saint‑Saëns’ *Bacchanale* and the mischievous splashes of Dukas’ *The Sorcerer’s Apprentice*, to the sensuous duet of Offenbach’s *Barcarolle* and the rousing vigor of Grieg’s *In the Hall of the Mountain King*, each piece builds drama and wonder atop a canvas of orchestral spectacle. Symphonic classics mingle with cinematic flair, as John Williams and Danny Elfman’s soundtracks summon fantastical worlds, while Gershwin’s *Rhapsody in Blue*—performed alongside the remarkable pianist Jeneba Kanneh‑Mason—ignites the stage with jazz‑infused brilliance. Ravel’s *Boléro* culminates in a breathtaking, fiery climax, leaving you breathless. Jeneba Kanneh‑Mason, acclaimed for her mature interpretation and “uncanny phenomenon” of the genre, enchants audiences worldwide. Her recent BBC Proms debut with the Chineke! Orchestra and forthcoming solo appearances at venues such as Zurich Tonhalle, Wigmore Hall, and the Academy of Saint Martin in the Fields, underscore her standing as a rising star. Join us for an afternoon brimming with colour, mystery, and electrifying orchestral storytelling—an unforgettable cinematic concert experience that promises to enchant every viewer.
