Programme Note
The Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra boasts 150 years of tradition of first-class musicianship in Zagreb and across Croatia. Under the baton of conductor Jan Latham-Koenig, the Orchestra performs Sibelius’ Violin Concerto, with one of Britain’s most active concerto soloists and recitalists, violinist Tamsin Waley-Cohen.
Over the decades, the Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra has stimulated Croatian musical creativity by performing, premiering and recording numerous pieces of music by Croatian composers and this concert will open with four short songs for voice and orchestra by Dora Pejačević sung by Croatian soprano Marija Vidović.
The second half of the performance will be Mahler’s thrilling and magnificent Symphony No. 1.
