KZN Philharmonic's Spring Season
''As we usher in our exciting Spring Season programme, we encourage all our loyal supporters to introduce new friends, family members, peers and associates, to the wonderful experience of sharing great music with each other'', says Bongani Tembe, the Orchestra's Chief Executive and Artistic Director. ''The City of Durban is blessed with the finest acoustic venue in this country. The KZN Philharmonic is proud to have the iconic City Hall's spacious facilities as our main stage concert platform, enabling us to present many of the world's leading musicians for the delight of our audience.''
The celebrated German maestro Wolfram Christ returns to the podium to launch the season on 31 October. An evening of Mozart concert gems opens with Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, one of the best-loved of all classical compositions. The programme's centerpiece is the exquisitely crafted Violin Concerto No 5 in A Major. Performed by Avigail Bushakevitz, its popular 'Turkish' soubriquet derives from the exotic middle section of its third movement.The magnificent Symphony No 39 K543 in E-flat, one of the miraculous trilogy of works that crowned the great Austrian composer's symphonic oeuvre in 1788, concludes the programme.
