JOIN the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra (MSO) and conductor Leonard Weiss for an unforgettable evening filled with timeless masterpieces from Glinka, Saint-Saëns and Brahms.
The Overture to Glinka’s opera Ruslan and Lyudmila is the epitome of orchestral curtain-raisers, with a furiously fast and infectious opening and rollicking good fun throughout.
MSO Assistant Concertmaster Tair Khisambeev will showcase the expressive virtuosity of Saint-Saëns’ Violin Concerto No. 3, filled with soaring melodies and dazzling passages.
Riverlinks Manager Matthew Schroeders encouraged everyone to come along and experience it for themselves. Mr Schroeders said, “The MSO never fails to inspire and uplift. Their return to Riverlinks is a celebration of musical excellence, and we’re proud to offer our community the chance to experience such artistry right here in Shepparton. Whether you’re a lifelong classical fan or simply curious, this evening will stir the soul and spark the imagination.” Before the performance, you can hear from presenter Amberley Bremner for a special pre-concert talk. Arrive early and join Amberley in the Riverlinks Eastbank function rooms from 6.45pm for an informative and entertaining discussion, with the orchestra to begin at 7.30pm.
Tickets to the performance are available in person, online or through the Riverlinks Box Office on 03 5832 9511.
