Chamber Music Festival
Pre-COVID planning had SYO and Chief Conductor Alexander Briger AO performing Brahms’ Violin Concerto with SSO Concertmaster Andrew Haveron as soloist, plus the Fourth Symphony of Tchaikovsky. Now, with crowd restrictions applying both to the number of players on the Verbrugghen Hall stage and listeners in its auditorium, one big concert for symphony orchestra will become five shorter ones with smaller groups.
Rachmaninov Symphony No. 2
Culminating two weeks of hard work and learnings in the UK, the 2019 UK Tour ended on a high, with SYO performing at the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford. Performing Rachmaninov Symphony No. 2 under the baton of esteemed conductor Geoffrey Paterson, the performance is a fantastic testimony to the musicians’ hard work.
Brahms Symphony No 3
The Sydney Youth Orchestra performs Brahms Third Symphony, kicking off the 2019 season for SYO conducted by Alexander Briger
Bruckner Symphony No. 8
Sweeping and dramatic, contemplative and painful, this grand masterpiece of the orchestral repertoire is an immersive experience for performers and audiences alike.
Mahler Symphony No. 10, Adagio
Unfinished at his death, the first movement of Mahler’s final symphony is considered the only performable movement of this rarely-heard work. Written in 1910, this work reflects the composer’s inner turmoil at the end of his life. It exists in several versions, but this concert features the work as Mahler left it.
Stravinksy Firebird Suite
The Firebird was Igor Stravinsky’s first large-scale work for orchestra. The work clearly shows Stravinsky on the cusp of a new world, mixing his orchestral mastery with the rhythmic vitality of a musical revolution about to burst out of his shell.
