Dreams of Vienna

Beneath Silver Skies
From the haunting beauty of Sibelius’s Violin Concerto to Day Rider’s exploration of the complexities of loss and healing, to the profound contemplations of Brahms’s Song of Destiny, this performance promises to be a moving testament to the enduring strength of the human spirit, resonating long after the final note has faded.
Violinist, Grace Lau
Conductor, Adam Johnson

Music of the Silver Screen
Join us for a colourful tribute to the special role music plays in cinematic storytelling. Experience exhilarating scores spanning from Out of Africa to James Bond, and from The Lord of the Rings to How to Train Your Dragon.
Also on the program is the enchanting tone poem, Harold in Italy, by the maestro of musical magic, Hector Berlioz. His ground-breaking sound effects didn’t just whisper to the future of film scores—they shouted!
