Cityscapes - Postcard pictures painted in sound
Expect an aural journey through different cities, modern and ancient, seen through the eyes of top wind composers in this accessible and exciting concert.
Led by Thai conductor Surapol Thanyawibool, one of Asia's most respected experts in wind music, The Philharmonic Winds will perform works like Adam Gorb's Midnight in Buenos Aires, which portrays the combination of darkness, violence, mystery and seductive passion that is intrinsic to tango, Argentina's national dance.
Fall in love with the capital of romance in Martin Ellerby's Paris Sketches, a four-movement work that depicts aspects of the city - from the bohemian Saint-Germain-des-Prés to Père Lachaise, one of the most famous cemeteries in the world.
The Philharmonic Winds' guest for the evening, Nontri Orchestra Wind, will present works under Thanyawibool's direction, including an original Thai composition. The wind orchestra, comprising music graduates of Bangkok's Kasetsart University and other professional musicians, will join the hosts to perform Satoshi Yagisawa's Machu Picchu, a gorgeous symphonic work reminiscent of a film score depicting the grandeur of "The Lost City of the Incas".
Tickets are at $15, $20, $25, $35, $50.
