soloist: Natasha Day
Tchaikovsky: Symphony no 3 in D major ‘Polish’

We welcome in 2026 with excerpts from two very different but equally well-loved operas: Wagner’s most serenely lyrical and warm hearted work: "The Mastersingers", and Tchaikovsky’s story—based on Alexander Pushkin’s verse novel Eugene Onegin. The so-called Letter Scene, where Tatyana expresses her feelings for the hero of the opera, is the most celebrated passage in the opera. Natasha Day has appeared with Scottish Sinfonia on several occasions, as soloist in Strauss Four Last Songs, Mahler Symphony No 4, and Mozart Exsultate Jubilate. Natasha, who was awarded a scholarship to study at The Royal College of Music, where she graduated with first class honours, is a prize winner in competitions in Warsaw, Poland and Prague. She is also a past Britten-Pears Young Artist. We are delighted to welcome back this fine artist to perform with us.
