Malaysian Philharmonic Youth Orchestra (MPYO) Visionary Masterworks @ Dewan Filharmonik Petronas, Level 2 Tower 2, Petronas Twin Towers, KLCC, Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur (15/12/19)
When: 3.00 pm, Sunday, 15th December, 2019
Malaysian Philharmonic Youth Orchestra
Gerard Salonga: Conductor
BEETHOVEN
Egmont: Overture
BERNSTEIN
Symphonic Dances from West Side Story
ELGAR
Enigma Variations
Future stars shine bright at DFP with the MPYO poised to take the stage! Join them and Maestro Gerard Salonga for an illuminating afternoon of delightful classics.
This concert will be the curtain call for the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra (MPO)’s 2019 glorious season.
Talented Malaysian youths will present works by Beethoven and Bernstein written for theatrical production; Beethoven’s overture to Egmont was written for a play written by Goethe in 1787, set against the background of the Dutch struggle for political independence from Spain in 16th century. Meanwhile, Bernstein’s Symphonic Dances is taken from West Side Story, one of the most successful Broadway plays in history. First heard in 1961, its sophisticated music has brought a new meaning to the universal Romeo and Juliet story, with a modern setting.
Also included in the repertoire list is Elgar’s Enigma Variations where generations of music lovers and musicologists have been trying to figure out the mysterious ‘enigma’. Premiered in 1899 in England, this music has brought instant fame for the composer.
Resident Conductor of the MPO, Gerard Salonga, will lead the MPYO in this concert. One of Malaysia’s youngest orchestras, the MPYO celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2017. Officially launched on 13 January 2006 with an objective to encourage and nurture local young musicians’ passion and appreciation of all genres of symphonic music, the MPYO indeed is a ‘stage for young talent’ with each section of the orchestra receiving professional coaching from the musicians of the MPO. Besides major cities in Malaysia, the MPYO has brought the beauty of its music to audiences in Singapore, Hong Kong, Jakarta and Brisbane, Australia.
