Dvořák’s New World Symphony

Orpheum

Our west-coast friends from the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, under the leadership of Otto Tausk, bring the kinetic excitement and technical brilliance of Brahms’s Violin Concerto, performed by Vadim Gluzman, along with Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 5, a work ablaze with emotional drama, reflecting the anxious tensions of the pre–World War II era.

David Pecaut Square

Known for her dazzling interpretations, Quebec soprano Andréanne Brisson Paquin is for the first time a guest with Les Violons du Roy. Osvaldo Golijov’s dreamlike music is at the heart of an irresistible program that takes us into a universe of folk rhythms with a poetic touch. Interludes by Canadian composer Claudie Bertounesque unify this journey through time.
