The ASO held its Gala Fundraising Dinner on 26 June. Thanks to all who supported the evening.
Arvo Volmer, Conductor Adele Anthony, Violin
Mendelssohn: A Midsummer Night’s Dream Overture Ross Edwards: Violin Concerto, Maninyas Sibelius: Lemminkainen Suite Adelaide Town Hall Friday 5 June, 8.00 pm Saturday 6 June, 6.30 pm
Worlds of myth and fantasy are explored when the ASO and Arvo Volmer lure us into the adventures of Lemminkäinen, in the vast musical canvas Sibelius created for this Finnish wild child. The Suite ranges from the exotic delights of the tempting maidens of Saari, to the soulful strains of The Swan of Tuonela and triumph of Lemminkäinen’s return home, some of the most viscerally exhilarating music ever composed. Maninyas is established as a classic of Australian music, an enchanting evocation of mysterious landscapes and we welcome back Adele Anthony, one of the most successful and beloved artists.
Arvo Volmer , Conductor Australian String Quartet
Carl Vine: Symphony No 7 Matthew Hindson: The Rave and the Nightingale Elgar: Introduction and Allegro Elgar: Enigma Variations
Adelaide Town Hall Friday 19 June, 8.00 pm Saturday 20 June, 6.30 pm
The ASO joins forces with Adelaide’s other leading musical treasure, the ASQ, for a brilliant concert combining the contemporary and the traditional. Arvo Volmer has championed Carl Vine’s new symphony, a work of this great Australian composer’s creative maturity. Matthew Hindson’s The Rave and the Nightingale is a twenty-first century take on Schubert, while Elgar’s impassioned Introduction and Allegro was inspired by the breathtaking scenery of his native Worcestershire. The musical portraits of Elgar’s friends in his Enigma Variations balance lust and affection, but the noble strains of the Nimrod variation have made it one of the most beloved tunes in all music.
