The highest British prize-winner at the prestigious Paganini competition for the last 50 years, Andrew Haveron has been one of the MCO's most popular soloists over the past decade. His highly acclaimed recording with the BBC Symphony Orchestra of Korngold's Violin Concerto ("written more for a Caruso than a Paganini") has attracted attention throughout the musical world. The MCO's 40th anniversary celebration also includes Richard Michael's specially arranged suite of his own pieces for Jazz Big Band and, by popular demand, a repeat performance of Gershwin's scintillating An American in Paris.
