About the concert

David Kim performs with and directs musicians from the Australian National Academy of Music (ANAM) in a program of operatic Mozart and joyous Dvořák as part of our Mostly Mozart series.

Mozart’s Magic Flute is a joyful opera that is rightfully a favourite of many, and in the right hands a brass ensemble will provide delicate new colour and riveting energy to these beautiful odes of affection. The Rondo from the Haffner serenade is a miniature violin concerto, letting guest director David Kim’s virtuosity shine. Dvořák’s Serenade for Strings is one of his most popular works, a joyous piece that, true to the style of this Romantic powerhouse, runs the gamut of emotions, and gives ample room for this talented ANAM ensemble to stretch their wings.
