The Vancouver Symphony's Music Director Otto Tausk makes his Edmonton debut conducting a Mozart masterpiece, his Sinfonia concertante. Featuring ESO Concertmaster Robert Uchida and Principal Viola Keith Hamm, the music in this piece has been described by historian Alfred Einstein as "dropped from heaven."

Written when Mendelssohn was just 15 years old, his First Symphony is filled with energy and youthful passion, reflecting his ideal that "the essence of beauty is unity in variety."

Manitoba-born Jocelyn Morlock called her mesmerizing Strange Loop "whimsical and fun/frenetic" music where "despite movement, one always ends up where one started."

This concert will include an intermission.
