Overview

Travel to Rome in this program alive with mediterranean colour

Respighi’s vibrant tone poems Fountains and Pines of Rome depict iconic landmarks in his adopted hometown, “contemplated at the hour when their characters are most in harmony with the surrounding landscape”, illustrated in his radiant style.

Queensland Symphony Orchestra (QSO) is joined by piano luminary Pierre-Laurent Aimard as soloist in Mozart’s luxuriant Piano Concerto No.22, with a slow movement so beautifully expressive that you might mistake it for Beethoven. The concert opens with Rossini’s most famous and recognisable overture, full of atmospheric colour and verve.

Guest conductor Jaime Martín returns to QSO for this expressive program.
