Harmonielehre (BC Premiere)

Approx. 120 Minute Performance

Maestro Tausk and violin virtuoso Paul Huang rise to the challenge of Shostakovich’s emotionally charged and frenzied First Violin Concerto. John Adams’ groundbreaking Harmonielehre receives its much-anticipated BC premiere, propelling the orchestra to new heights with its vision of an oil tanker rocketing skyward. Plus hear the world premiere of Earth, Beloved from BC composer Nicholas Ryan Kelly, and featuring the Elektra Women’s Choir.

Earth, Beloved  was commissioned with financial support from the Hugh Davidson Fund through the Victoria Foundation.
