Join the Qatar Philharmonic Orchestra (QPO) and Maestro Pablo Mielgo for an evening that journeys from lyricism and elegance to symphonic revolution. The concert opens with Brahms’ radiant Variations on a Theme by Haydn, a masterpiece of orchestral color. QPO’s oboist German Díaz Blanco then takes center stage in Richard Strauss’ Concerto for Oboe in D major, a virtuosic and poetic work that is hued with late-Romantic warmth. After the intermission, the orchestra turns to one of the defining works in music history, Beethoven’s Symphony No. 3, “Eroica.” Bold and expansive, the “Eroica” reshaped what a symphony could be.
