Music on Sundays 2: Spirit of the Violin

A violin showcase of electrifying flair. Led by conductor Jessica Gethin and featuring Principal First Violin Johnny van Gend, this concert is a celebration of elegance and remarkable virtuosity. Waxman’s Carmen Fantasie and Tchaikovsky’s sparkling Valse-Scherzo offer thrilling moments for solo violin, before Glazunov’s Scènes de ballet closes the concert with rhapsodic fervor. You’ll also hear Jessica Wells’ Suite from Butterfly Effect, a World Premiere that’s a fresh and poignant take on the iconic opera, alongside the stately Polonaise from Eugene Onegin. Expect beauty, brilliance, and music that dances. Queensland Symphony Orchestra is proudly supported by Brisbane City Council.
