Description
Join Nova Sinfonia for an evening of dramatic orchestral music and brilliant vocal artistry as the orchestra continues its 30th Anniversary Season. Under the direction of Greg Burton, the program welcomes acclaimed soprano Brittany Cann for a selection of powerful operatic arias by Mozart and Beethoven.
The concert opens with Mozart’s Symphony No. 24 in B-flat major, K.182, a vibrant early work full of elegance and youthful energy. Brittany Cann then takes the stage for Beethoven’s thrilling “Abscheulicher!… O komm, Hoffnung”from Fidelio, followed by two beloved Mozart arias: Donna Anna’s dramatic “Non mi dir, bell’idol mio” from Don Giovanni and the Countess’s deeply expressive “Porgi, amor” from Le nozze di Figaro.
The orchestra will also perform Frederick Delius’s Two Pieces for Small Orchestra, music of shimmering colour and lyrical beauty, before concluding the evening with Beethoven’s Symphony No. 1 in C major, Op. 21, a work that marks the bold arrival of Beethoven’s symphonic voice.
