ABOUT
The Pretoria Symphony Orchestra ends the year on a high note after a busy season; from bringing
back opera to the South African State Theatre to outdoor symphonic music next to the Hennops
River with over a thousand guests in attendance.
The PSO will be conducted by associate conductor, Schalk van der Merwe. “Finale" not only culminates a successful year for the PSO, but also signifies the final concert in completion of our assistant conductor’s Master’s degree. This calls for a programme that will leave any regular, as well as not-so-regular concert attendee, inspired.
The programme consists of the following works that span from a concerto by one of the masters of the classical era to a symphony by a lessor known, but still awe-inspiring composer of the late
romantic period.
Programme
Von Weber | Overture to ‘Der Freischütz’
Mozart | Flute Concerto No. 1 in G major, KV313 with soloist Renee Hartzenberg
Kalinnikov | Symphony No. 1 in G minor
