SUMMARY:The Choir of King's College\, Cambridge (Rehearsal - Sold Out)
DESCRIPTION:The Choir of King’s College\, Cambridge will be joining your Victoria Symphony this spring for a performance of Mozart’s Requiem\, which has long sold out. In response to the ongoing demand\, we have opened up 175 tickets to attend an open working rehearsal on April 11 from 10:00 am – 12:30 pm* at the Farquhar at UVic. \nThis open working rehearsal offers an intimate window into how this remarkable ensemble works: how sound is shaped\, how meaning is uncovered\, and how young musicians are guided to extraordinary artistic standards. \nAs part of the experience\, Daniel Hyde (Director of Music at King’s College) and Matthew White (VS CEO) will host a 20-minute open talkback during the break\, offering context\, reflections\, and the chance for conversation. \n*This is a working rehearsal\, duration is subject to change. \n“I had the great privilege of hosting the Choir once before during my time at Early Music Vancouver. While their performance was sublime\, what has stayed with me most vividly was a quiet morning spent alone in the hall\, observing a full rehearsal. The combination of humanity\, discipline\, and musical excellence is the essence of this centuries-old tradition\, and it is rarely witnessed from the inside. This is a genuinely special event\, so I hope you will join us whether you have tickets to the concert or not. This opportunity is limited in capacity but promises to be unforgettable in impact.” \n–          Matthew White\, CEO

SUMMARY:Kluxen & Min – Rachmaninoff & Shostakovich
DESCRIPTION:A hometown favourite\, the globe-trotting pianist Lorraine Min is featured in one of Rachmaninoff’s most challenging and best loved works. This concert is sure to delight\, especially listening to the sublime Variation 18! Shostakovich and Britten were near contemporaries\, and equally precocious. Jaunty fiddle tunes from Quebec inspired Britten\, while the Symphony No. 1 was Shostakovich’s graduation project from the Leningrad Conservatory. It brought him instant international fame. \n\nKNOW BEFORE YOU GO \nConcert duration: Approx. 95 minutes including one 20 minute intermission\nPre-concert Chat: Please join us at 6:40 pm in the west lobby for a pre-concert chat featuring Music Director Christian Kluxen and VS bass trombone Robert Fraser.

SUMMARY:Kluxen & Brantelid – Prokofiev and Mendelssohn's Scottish
DESCRIPTION:The misty and melancholy atmosphere of Edinburgh’s Holyrood Palace provided the initial inspiration for Mendelssohn’s “Scottish” Symphony. Its triumphant finale parallels the conclusion of Beethoven’s Egmont – a tragedy that ends in victory. The Symphony-Concerto in E minor is one of Prokofiev’s final works\, created in consultation with soloist Mstislav Rostropovich. It is one of the most demanding works in the cello repertoire. To interpret it\, Maestro Christian Kluxen welcomes his Danish compatriot\, Andreas Brantelid. \n\nKNOW BEFORE YOU GO \nConcert duration: Approx. 115 minutes including one 20 minute intermission\nPre-concert Chat: Please join us at 1:40 pm in the west lobby for a pre-concert chat featuring Music Director Christian Kluxen\, cellist Andreas Brantelid\, and VS bass trombone Robert Fraser.

SUMMARY:Kluxen – Haydn & Strauss
DESCRIPTION:This program celebrates humor\, ingenuity\,and the blending of styles across three distinct musical voices. HK Gruber’s Manhattan Broadcasts sets the stage with its jazzy energy\, and tongue-in-cheek playfulness\, drawing on urban soundscapes. Haydn’s Symphony No. 60\, “Il Distratto”\, follows with its brilliant theatricality\, weaving a lighthearted narrative full of wit and surprising turns. The evening culminates with Richard Strauss’s Le bourgeois gentilhomme\, a charming suite that fuses Baroque elegance with Strauss’s characteristic warmth and humor\, evoking the whimsical world of Molière’s classic comedy. Together\, these works promise an engaging and richly textured musical journey. \n\nKNOW BEFORE YOU GO \nConcert duration: Approx. 90 minutes including one 20 minute intermission

SUMMARY:Jeremy Dutcher in Concert
DESCRIPTION:Singer-songwriter\, composer\, and musicologist Jeremy Dutcher is the first artist in history to win the Polaris Music Prize twice. The classically trained tenor is a member of the Tobique First Nation in New Brunswick and his debut album\, Wolastoqiyik Lintuwakonawa\, (2018) helped to bring the endangered language of the Wolastoqiyik people to new generations. Dutcher’s follow-up album\, Motewolonuwok (2024)\, featuring a mixture of original songs in English and Wolastoqey\, continues to preserve a language while fostering inclusivity\, reclamation\, and reconciliation. Unapologetically playful in its incorporation of classical influences\, full of reverence for the traditional songs of his home\, and teeming with the urgency of modern-day resistance\, Jeremy makes his VS debut with works from both of his award-winning albums. \n\nKNOW BEFORE YOU GO \nConcert duration: Approx. 100 minutes including one 20 minute intermission

SUMMARY:Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 4 & Tchaikovsky's Pathétique (Sold Out)
DESCRIPTION:Poetic and passionate performances are in store from two emerging Canadian talents. In September 2024\, Salmon Arm BC-born pianist Jaeden-Izik Dzurko took top honours at the Leeds International Piano Competition—the first Canadian to do so since Jon Kimura Parker won in 1984. Nicolas Ellis is Music Director of the Orchestre National de Bretagne and Principal Guest of Les Violons du Roy. He served as Artistic Collaborator of the Orchestre Métropolitain and Yannick Nézet-Séguin from 2018 to 2023. The intriguing title of Florence Tremblay’s work\, Les détours nécessaires (The Necessary Detours)\, alludes to the world of video games but also suggests that sometimes\, in life\, the most successful path is not always the necessary or obvious one to take.
