Poulenc Organ Concerto

Thursday, April 29 @ 7:30 pm

Adès – Three Studies from Couperin
Poulenc – Concerto for organ, strings and timpani

Donald Hunt, organ

This concert introduces Christ Church Cathedral’s Director of Music, Donald Hunt, in his Symphony debut performing Poulenc’s Concerto for organ, strings and timpani on the majestic instrument built in 2005 by the late Helmuth Wolff for this extraordinary space.

Telemann – Orchestral Suite La Bizarre in G major
C.P.E. Bach – Cello Concerto in A minor

Brian Yoon, cello

*This program will be available until June 11, 2021

A transitional figure between the Baroque and Classical periods, C.P.E Bach was J.S. Bach’s most celebrated son. His writing is wildly expressive and his Cello Concerto in A minor as played by VS principal cello Brian Yoon demonstrates why he had such a profound effect on the composers who followed him. Completing this program is Telemann’s Orchestral Suite: La Bizarre in G major.

Tam Plays Mendelssohn

Thursday, June 24 @ 7:30 pm

Farrenc – Overture No. 2 in E-flat major
Mendelssohn – Violin Concerto in E minor

Terence Tam, violin

*This program will be available until July 23, 2021

The last concert in the Victoria Symphony’s 2020-21 Virtual Season closes as it opened with a programme featuring Concertmaster Terence Tam. Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto is an undisputed romantic masterpiece that is paired here with a work by Louise Farrenc, a French composer of the same period as Mendelssohn who rejected Parisian tastes and pursued instead the ideals of German absolute music. Her Overture No. 2 in E-flat major, Op. 24 is clearly influenced by Beethoven and evidence of why her music was performed widely in Europe during her lifetime.
