From the first shimmering of a spring to the magical brilliance of an enchanted lake, this "matinee" concert traces an aquatic journey steeped in imagination.
Smetana’s The Moldau sets the course: a river is born, winds its way, swells, and the orchestra sparkles with colors evoking forests, villages, and rushing currents. At the heart of the voyage, Sibelius’s Violin Concerto surges like an inner torrent, where Andrew Wan unfolds a solitary, ardent lyricism, sculpted by silences and soaring lines. The journey concludes with Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake Suite, dazzling with orchestral brilliance. The river becomes a lake—a realm of magic, dance, and light.
