Flutist

The concerto as a vehicle for virtuosic display flourished during the 19th Century, becoming increasingly complex and ambitious works. While performances of typical concerto in the baroque era lasted about ten minutes, those by Beethoven, for example, could last half an hour or longer. Concertos from all ages, since their development in late 1600s, have remained a conspicuous and important part of the repertoire for concert performances and recordings and this concert will feature the winner of the 2025 Symphony Central Coast Concerto Competition Elana Sydenham, as she performs Taffenel’s Fantasy on Der Freischutz.
