Event Description

Join the UVic Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Maestro Giuseppe Pietraroia for a captivating evening of music that blends drama, passion, and rhythmic vitality. The program opens with the overture to Franz Schubert's opera “Fierabras,” a piece filled with heroic energy and lyrical charm that sets the stage for a journey through musical storytelling.

Next, prepare to be swept away by the emotional depth and virtuosity of Johannes Brahms' Piano Concerto No. 1 in D Minor, Op. 15, featuring UVic’s 2024 Concerto Competition Winner Jiran Miao. A masterpiece of the Romantic era, this concerto's powerful orchestral textures and intricate piano passages will take you on a journey from turbulent passion to serene introspection.

The concert concludes with Antonín Dvořák's lively “Slavonic Dances, Op. 72.” Inspired by the folk traditions of Dvořák's homeland, these dances brim with infectious rhythms, vibrant melodies, and the spirit of Czech folk music, promising a joyous and exuberant finale to the evening.

Don't miss this unforgettable concert that showcases the beauty and power of orchestral music and emerging student performers at their finest.
