Seize fate by the throat!
Our April Concert features two premieres and a classic - perhaps *the* classic.
Thalia Symphony is proud to present the world premiere of Annyeong (goodbye) by Seattle composer Green Seo. Seo is an accomplished composer of music for film and video (and our principal bassist).
We will be giving the West Coast premiere of the Violin Concerto by Irish composer Ina Boyle (1889-1967). Written in 1933 (revised 1935), the work is contemplative and wistful, dedicated to her mother who had recently passed away. It is also offers a glimpse of pre-war Ireland, before the Emergency of 1939-1946.
Our soloist will be noted Seattle violinist Victoria Parker. Born into a musical family, she has been a frequent soloist in the Northwest and beyond. She is a founding member of the North Corner Chamber Orchestra and regularly performs with the Seattle Symphony and Seattle Opera.
Concluding the program will be Ludwig van Beethoven's (1770-1827) Symphony No. 5. Perhaps the single most recognizable piece in the symphony orchestra literature, it has been thrilling and moving audiences since its premiere in Vienna in 1808. With this performance, we also commemorate the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe.
