SUMMARY:Kluxen & Pouliot – Dvořák’s New World Symphony & Sibelius Violin Concerto
DESCRIPTION:Heino Eller’s Dawn captures both the first light of day and the awakening of Estonian national identity after World War I. Sibelius’s Violin Concerto\, lyrical and vast\, reflects the mystery of the landscape that shaped him\, here brought to life by the brilliant Canadian violinist Blake Pouliot. Dvořák’s New World Symphony\, written during his stay in America\, weaves homesickness and discovery into one of the most beloved works in all symphonic literature.

SUMMARY:Aadland & Tam – The Lark Ascending
DESCRIPTION:Elgar’s Introduction and Allegro was written in 1905 to showcase the virtuosity of the London Symphony Orchestra’s string players and its warmth and elegance remain irresistible today. Vaughan Williams’s beloved The Lark Ascending\, performed by VS Concertmaster Terence Tam\, floats with pastoral grace and quiet transcendence. The concert concludes with Schumann’s Symphony No. 2\, a radiant triumph over adversity\, conducted by the distinguished Norwegian maestro Eivind Aadland\, Artistic Director of the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra.

SUMMARY:Kluxen & Choi – Prokofiev Classical & Haydn Cello Concerto
DESCRIPTION:Rossini’s mischievous Il signor Bruschino Overture sparkles with wit and charm—proof that classical can also be playful. Hayoung Choi\, winner of the 2022 Queen Elisabeth Competition\, brings brilliance and elegance to Haydn’s much loved Cello Concerto No. 1. Prokofiev’s Classical Symphony playfully reimagines eighteenth-century forms through a modern lens\, before Haydn returns to close with Symphony No. 75\, whose humour and grace remind us that true classicism is always alive\, never antique.

DESCRIPTION:Experience Wagner’s monumental Ring Cycle—Das Rheingold through Götterdämmerung—in a single\, seamless symphonic journey. The Ring Without Words\, arranged by Lorin Maazel\, distills fifteen hours of drama into seventy-five minutes of breathtaking orchestral storytelling. Christian Kluxen leads one of the largest ensembles ever assembled by the VS in this landmark event for Wagnerians and newcomers alike.

SUMMARY:Kluxen & Sarkissian – Schubert Symphony No. 5 and Rautavaara Flute Concerto
DESCRIPTION:Heavenly inspiration and earthly beauty intertwine in this celestial program. Langgaard (Danish visionary\, eccentric\, and long misunderstood) paints a luminous morning sky\, his melodic imagination anticipating modernism’s bold colours. Rautavaara’s Dances with the Winds\, performed by VS Principal Flute Arin Sarkissian\, breathes spiritual life and mystery into the instrument’s voice. Schubert’s pastoral and light Fifth Symphony follows\, clear and human in its warmth\, before Josef Strauss brings us full circle with his cosmic Music of the Spheres\, where Viennese grace meets the harmony of the heavens.
