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 – Atwood\, Heggie\, & Sibelius
DESCRIPTION:Ten years following the tragic death of his sister\, opera star Joshua Hopkins showcases a powerful song cycle that honours her memory and comforts those who are in grief. Co-commissioned by the National Arts Centre Orchestra and Houston Grand Opera\, composer Jake Heggie sets poetry by Margaret Atwood in a moving musical work that speaks out against domestic violence. Music of Sibelius (including VS’s own Russell Bajer on English horn for The Swan of Tuonela) balances the program with works of sublime beauty and pastoral comfort. \n
