SUMMARY:Melbourne Symphony Orchestra: Rossini's Petite messe solennelle
DESCRIPTION:The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra Chorus returns to the stage with Rossini’s essential masterpiece.\nAbout the concert\nThe Melbourne Symphony Orchestra Chorus returns to the stage with Rossini’s essential masterpiece\, Petite messe solennelle. Warren Trevelyan-Jones directs four stunning soloists\, accompanied by Melbourne-based Jacob Abela on piano and harmonium. \nThe Petite messe solennelle (1863) is arguably one of the most remarkable of all the nineteenth-century choral masterworks. The style that Rossini uses in his twilight years (this being one of the last works he wrote before his death in 1868) is comparable to the choral music of Haydn\, Fauré and Poulenc. \nThe beautiful melodies in this work are intertwined with the comedic sense of irony that gave Rossini so much of his success with the opera buffa genre. This piece is neither small\, nor solemn! \nRossini structured his mass in the tradition of the missa solemnis but added the petite label as a little joke. He wrote on the final page of the manuscript: ‘Dear Lord\, here it is finished\, this poor little mass. Have I just written sacred music\, or rather\, sacrilegious music? I was born for opera buffa\, as you know well. Not much technique\, a little bit of heart\, that’s all.’ \n\nSaturday 28 May 2022 7.30pm \nDuration: 1 hour 30 mins (no interval) \n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\nStandard $49 ($44 Concession)\nGroup 10+ $41

SUMMARY:Melbourne Symphony Orchestra: Fantasia
DESCRIPTION:Be swept away in a night of musical magic when the MSO presents one of Disney’s most extraordinary and groundbreaking animated features\, Fantasia\, in concert live to film. \nReleased to great acclaim in 1940\, Walt Disney’s Fantasia was his boldest experiment at the time and culminated in the creative visionary’s desire to blend animated imagery with classical music. \nConducted by Benjamin Northey\, the MSO will perform the beautifully curated emotional score of classical music including Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker Suite\, Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony\, Dukas’ The Sorcerer’s Apprentice\, Bach’s Toccata and Fugue\, Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring\, and the fantastically dark scene with Mussorgsky’s Night on Bald Mountain. \nThe original film score was conducted by Leopold Stokowski with the Philadelphia Orchestra\, recorded in stereophonic sound\, which was still an experimental medium at the time. What had begun as a vehicle to develop Mickey Mouse’s career with an animation short titled The Sorcerer’s Apprentice\, went on to become a genuine cinema classic. \n  \nTickets \nStandard: $65.00 – $129.00 \nConcession: $60.00 – $124.00

SUMMARY:Melbourne Symphony Orchestra: Brahms and Korngold
DESCRIPTION:Artists\n\n\n\n\nMelbourne Symphony Orchestra\n\n\n\nBenjamin Northey\nConductor\n\n\nDaniel de Borah\nPiano\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgram\n\n\n\n\nBrahms\nPiano Concerto No.2\n\n\nKorngold\nSymphony in F-sharp\n\n\nJoined by acclaimed Australian pianist Daniel de Borah\, the MSO presents a drama-filled program of epic proportions. \n\n\n\n\nIt took Brahms three years to write this mammoth work for piano and orchestra – the longest piano concerto of the romantic era! The longer and more ambitious his works became\, the more he quirkily referred to them in diminutive terms\, describing this gargantuan work as ‘a very small piano concerto’. Currently head of Chamber Music at the Queensland Conservatorium\, Daniel de Borah embarks on this journey of physical and musical endurance\, guiding us through seamless and ever-surprising passages of tempestuousness\, tenderness\, yearning\, and elegance. \nBy the time Erich Korngold’s Symphony in F-Sharp was finished in 1952\, he’d been working in Hollywood as a film composer for nearly twenty years. As someone who exerted a profound influence on modern film music\, it’s almost impossible not to create a movie in your mind to Korngold’s epically dramatic score – from thrilling chase scenes to tender love themes – this is orchestral grandiosity straight out of golden-era La La Land. \nPrice range\n\n\nThursday 31 March \n\nStandard\n$75.00 – $141.00\n\n\nConcession*\n$70.00 – $136.00\n\nSaturday 2 April \n\nStandard\n$69.00 – $119.00\n\n\nConcession*\n$65.00 – $114.00

SUMMARY:Melbourne Symphony Orchestra: Song and Dance
DESCRIPTION:Melbourne Symphony Orchestra\nPeter Luff conductor\nRachael Tobin cello\n\nPROGRAM\nBonis Legendary Women\, three pieces for orchestra\nKodály Dances of Galánta\nAnna Clyne DANCE: for Cello and Orchestra\nRimsky-Korsakov Capriccio Espagnol \nAustralian horn player-turned-conductor Peter Luff partners up with the MSO to lead us through this eclectic dance party of a program. \n\nFrench composer Mélanie ‘Mel’ Bonis was highly regarded in her time\, but\, as with many women in classical music\, her presence has been largely obscured over the course of history. Fitting\, then\, that she should uncover three Legendary Women in this haunting piece of swirling harmonies and quiet strength.\nKodály is perhaps best remembered for inventing the Kodály method – a system known by primary school students and Sound of Music lovers all over the world – where notes of the scale are associated with hand signals (do\, re\, me etc.). Kodály’s other major contribution to music was his celebration of Hungarian folk melodies on the orchestral stage\, such as these beguiling and memorable dances from Galánta\, a town on the train line from Budapest to Vienna.\nBritish Anna Clyne is a young Grammy-nominated acoustic and electro-acoustic composer. Inspired by a poem by Rumi\, Clyne’s impressive concerto is performed by MSO Associate Principal Cello Rachael Tobin. Dedicated to her father\, DANCE spins us through many moods of dance: from contemplative minimalism with soaring melodies\, to lashings of industrial rhythmic urgency.\nWith boisterous percussion and jovial brass\, Rimsky-Korsakov’s Capriccio Espagnol showcases the virtuosity of individual instruments in the orchestra through a vivid amalgamation of Spanish dances and Russian gypsy music.

In his first year in the position\, Haydn wrote Symphony No.6 Le Matin (the morning). This sprightly work is sprinkled with instrumental solos\, which will showcase the talented members of the MSO. \nMSO First Nations Creative Chair Deborah Cheetham AO will collaborate with William Barton for the first time to create a new work for orchestra and didgeridoo. In Cheetham’s words\, her new role will help the MSO explore their “identity and how deeply they can connect to Indigenous knowledges and ways of being”. \nGustav Mahler described the first movement of his First Symphony as the “awakening of nature from a long winter sleep”. This lyrical symphony continues on with a multitude of inspirations: Mahler drew on everything from past romantic entanglements\, a nineteenth century woodcut print\, a funeral march\, and a nursery rhyme!
