Ukranian-born Australian pianist Alexander Gavrylyuk makes a welcome return with Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No 1 – an instantly recognisable classic with soaring melodies and exhilarating energy.
PROGRAM CHANGE: This concert was previously titled Prokofiev's Violin Concerto. Our original soloist, Nemanja Radulovic, unfortunately had to cancel his Australian tour due to ill health.
Radiohead guitarist and keyboardist, Jonny Greenwood, composed his Suite from Norwegian Wood for the film adaptation of Haruki Murakami’s cult novel, blending rich orchestration with atmospheric phrasing.
Brahms’s Symphony No 1 is a powerful, storm-forged journey from brooding intensity to radiant triumph.
On the podium is former Chief Conductor and Artistic Director, Marko Letonja.
This concert is part of our Federation Concert Hall Series.
