The sight of young artists fearlessly<br />
conquering concertos which strike fear<br />
into <strong>the</strong> hearts of much older players is<br />
familiar now, but 17 year old es<strong>the</strong>r Yoo’s<br />
heart-stopping blend of confidence and<br />
bravura tempered by poise is indescribably<br />
exciting, especially in Sibelius’ Violin Concerto,<br />
with which she won <strong>the</strong> 2010 Sibelius<br />
Competition in Helsinki. With its dark<br />
brooding opening, song-like slow movement<br />
and restlessly dancing finale, it’s widely<br />
regarded as <strong>the</strong> most taxing in <strong>the</strong> repertoire.<br />
Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet ballet is one of<br />
<strong>the</strong> greatest scores of <strong>the</strong> twentieth century,<br />
its transcendent “symphonic” qualities make<br />
it widely performed in <strong>the</strong> concert hall where<br />
it never fails to move audiences with its<br />
power and eloquence.<br />

Russian Conductor edvard Tchivzhel<br />
returns to Brisbane with Tchaikovsky’s<br />
symphonic poem Francesca da Rimini, a<br />
<strong>music</strong>al vortex of anguished love where <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>music</strong> demonstrates a lyrical and dramatic<br />
genius. In <strong>the</strong> final work Maestro Tchivzhel<br />
and <strong>the</strong> orchestra will sweep <strong>the</strong> audience<br />
into total submission with Rachmaninov’s<br />
Symphonic Dances, darkly glamorous, even<br />
slightly wicked <strong>music</strong> and his last orchestral<br />
work... In between, Russian pianist nikolai<br />
Demidenko, once described as a force of<br />
nature at <strong>the</strong> keyboard, in Rachmaninov’s<br />
spikily brilliant Fourth Piano Concerto. Both<br />
works prove Rachmaninov’s creative power<br />
remained undimmed at <strong>the</strong> end of his life.<br />
