Opening at home with New Zealand composer Lilburn’s Aotearoa Overture, Manukau Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of esteemed conductor Ivan Meylemans, then whisks the audience away to the music of the Northern Hemisphere by Finnish composer Sibelius and Norwegian composer Grieg.
Programme:
Lilburn (NZ) - Aotearoa Overture
Sibelius - Violin Concerto
Grieg - Peer Gynt Suite No.1
Sternefeld - Song and Dance at the Court of Queen Mary of Burgundy
Sibelius’ Concerto for Violin, performed by New Zealander Simeon Broom – who returns from the UK – sparkles with glitter, personality and style.
From the opening ‘Morning’ to the closing ‘In the Hall of the Mountain King’, Grieg’s Peer Gynt Suite leads us on an epic journey through Norway.
As a special treat, Belgian conductor Ivan Meylemans, who worked with Manukau Symphony Orchestra in 2008, brings us the suite "Song and Dance at the Court of Queen Mary of Burgundy" from his own county by Daniel Sternefeld.
An evening not to be missed!
