The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra is to launch the Bexhill Festival of Music at the De La War Pavilion with one of their flagship concerts, the Tchaikovsky Gala.

The popular concert has played to sold-out houses across the UK, including the Royal Albert Hall, and features Tchaikovsky’s Capriccio Italien and the powerful Marche Slave, alongside excerpts from his most popular ballet, The Nutcracker.

The concert also features his Piano Concerto No.1 and ends with the explosive 1812 Overture (recognisable from film V for Vendetta and many television adverts).
