The latest edition of the Spohr Society Newsletter states that Spohr's Symphony No 2 in D minor, which he wrote during his second visit to England in 1820, is to be featured in a concert given by the Kingston Chamber Orchestra at Kingston Parish Church at 7.30 pm on 22nd June. I'm hoping to get along there myself, as I've only heard one live performance of any work by Spohr and that was his Nonet back in 1957 at Conway Hall, London. No 2 is a particular favourite of mine and I think I can claim to have produced the first printable version of the score in modern times around 14 years ago having copied out a facsimile manuscript version into Noteworthy Score writing software.
Cheers,
John.
well, if you travel to Cardiff in April you can maybe attend a second live performance of a Spohr work (one of his quintets) ...
Thanks for the info, John.
