Led by Austin Chanu with Concertmaster Joo Young Oh, this programme moves from Mozart’s sharp wit to Bartók’s full-throttle orchestral color.
Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro Overture kicks things off in a rush of energy, bright, fast, and instantly likeable. His Flute Concerto then brings a lighter, more lyrical mood, featuring QPO’s Aleksandr Haskin as the soloist.
After the interval, Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra takes over with bold rhythms, vivid sound, and one standout moment after another across the whole ensemble, ending in a huge finale. This is an evening that should not be missed!
