SUMMARY:Kluxen & Leong – Beethoven Violin Concerto
DESCRIPTION:VS launches the season with an energetic overture and a monumental concerto. Since his First Prize win at the International Yehudi Menuhin Violin Competition in 2010\, Kerson Leong has been described as “not just one of Canada’s greatest violinists but one of the greatest violinists\, period” (Toronto Star). The musical modernist Arnold Schoenberg paid tribute to “Brahms The Progressive” by orchestrating the latter’s Piano Quartet No.1. Hear this chamber work with fresh ears: in an orchestral setting that will make the most of its energetic Rondo alla Zingarese.

SUMMARY:Kluxen – Strauss' Four Last Songs
DESCRIPTION:In a time of darkness\, beauty can still emerge. In the landscape of mid-century politics\, war and oppression\, Strauss and Shostakovich were both victims of circumstance. In the twilight of his years\, Strauss reflected on our walk through life towards death\, and beyond. Shostakovich’s Tenth mirrors the terror he experienced under Stalin’s rule\, but ultimately his triumph at simply outliving the dictator. Humanity can prevail – a reflection as relevant today as it was 70+ years ago. \n\n2024/25 Season Underwritten by Robert & Devi Jawl Foundation\nSundays at the Royal Series underwritten by Jill Gibson\nConcert underwritten by Commodore & Mrs. Jan Drent and Dr. Fritz & Dora Boehm\nChristian Kluxen underwritten by Sandra Lackenbauer\nAviva Fortunata underwritten by Julie & Harry Swain
