The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra’s string section take centre stage in a concert that spans both continents and centuries. Artist in Residence Simone Lamsma brings the many moods and colours of Argentina’s capital to the stage as she takes on Piazzolla’s passionate Four Seasons of Buenos Aires, then treats us to Sarasate’s enchanting Introduction and Tarantella. Heading north on our musical journey, Eva Thorarinsdottir joins Simone for Bach’s iconic Double Concerto, and we experience Arvo Pärt’s enigmatic Summa and the celebratory sounds of Grieg’s Holberg Suite.

Four Seasons of Buenos Aires

Yoko Ono Lennon Centre

This concert of beautiful duets and trios is a celebration of friendship, community and a shared love of music.  For twelve years, Lorna, Jenny and Rhian have played together in the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. This concert will be recorded for CD and all proceeds from the recording will go towards the PSO Musicians’ Care Fund, chaired by Rhian Kenny. The mission of the Fund is to provide musical experiences to all children, regardless of the ability of their family or school district to pay. Additionally, our broader flute community will also be represented as members of Pittsburgh Flute Academy, led by Wendy Kumer, will serenade the audience on arrival.
