Join the Vancouver Academy of Music Symphony Orchestra in their season finale concert, presenting an all-Brahms program. The freshness and spontaneity of Brahms’ Hungarian Dances will prepare you for the Double Concerto in A minor to follow, featuring Nicholas Wright (VSO Concertmaster) and Joseph Elworthy (VAM President & CEO). This piece was the composer’s final work for orchestra and is sure to cast a spell on listeners. Concluding the program is Brahms’ Symphony No. 4, a work with a dark and tragic character, reflective of the composer’s pondering of retirement, giving us a window into his innermost thoughts.
Ian Parker, conductor
Nicholas Wright, violin soloist
