Clarinet Mastery And The New World

Event Date: 20/03/2016, 02:30 pm

The Balmain Sinfonia opens its 2016 program with a program of mesmerising clarinet virtuosity
The Balmain Sinfonia opens its 2016 program with a program of mesmerising clarinet virtuosity and symphonic joys (with both an American and central European twist) on Sunday March 20 at 2.30pm.

Showcasing Australian international artist and SSO member Francesco Celata, the concert features American Artie Shaw’s much-adored Clarinet Concerto as well the showy Czardas by Monti, Smetana’s sweeping Moldau and Dvorak’s epic New World Symphony.

The orchestra’s founder, artistic director and conductor, Gary Stavrou said the Moldau – with its famous themes depicting nature, drama and patriotic pride - was the epitome of Romanticism.
Monti’s Czardas in the style of an alternately teasing then unhinged Hungarian dance, is probably the most famous and technically brilliant piece ever written for violin and is here performed in an arrangement for clarinet (“the ultimate party piece for a talented soloist”).

“Shaw’s tuneful Clarinet Concerto has risen above early snobbery to withstand the test of time and be universally adored by audiences the world over.
And the New World Symphony may well be the most well-known and well-loved Romantic symphony of all time,” he added.

Francesco (Frank) Celata joined the Sydney Symphony Orchestra in 1993 as Associate Principal Clarinet and has appeared as soloist on several occasions. He has also appeared as soloist with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra and the Auckland Philharmonia, and on a number of occasions between 2003 and 2009 he appeared with the London Symphony Orchestra as guest Principal Clarinet, performing on international tours and recordings.
Frank Celata has also been a past soloist with Balmain Sinfonia, performing the Mozart Clarinet Concerto to great acclaim.
Frank has also given generously of his time as wind tutor to Balmain Sinfonia.
Join Frank, Gary and the Balmain Sinfonia for this attractive – and well-priced – autumn afternoon treat in the comfort of the Macquarie Theatre.

Ku-Ring-Gai Philharmonic Orchestra's Fantastic...

Event Date: 12/03/2016, 07:30 pm

KPO Season Launch 2016
In a programme of vivid and entertaining works, the Ku-ring-gai Philharmonic Orchestra launches its 2016 season with a musical landmark, the famous Symphonie fantastique by Hector Berlioz.

This revolutionary symphony, built around a sensational dramatic narrative, was a breakthrough composition both for musical romanticism and for the young Berlioz. Using the symphony as a vehicle for the exploration of his own passions and fantasies, Berlioz found a vital new path for symphonic composition after Beethoven. And yet, the Symphonie fantastique is just as famous for its exciting orchestral effects and memorable melodies.

Richard Strauss's bold and engaging First Horn Concerto is the work of a highly talented 18 year old and shows the early signs of a composer looking beyond the constraints of his conservative training, towards the magnificent tone-poems that were to follow. Our outstanding young soloist is Alice Yang, a former student of the legendary Sydney-born horn player, Barry Tuckwell.
