Final leg of KZNPO’s 2018 Spring Season

THE KwaZulu-Natal Philharmonic Orchestra is half way through its 2018 Spring Season which runs every Thursday at 7.30pm in the Durban City Hall until 22 November.

The programme climaxes with Robert Schumann’s ‘Spring Symphony’, the German Romantic composer’s first symphonic composition, written in 1841 shortly after his happy marriage to the renowned concert pianist, Clara Wieck.

Daniel Boico, KZNPO’s Associate Guest Conductor, rounds off the Spring Season with performances of Mendelssohn’s hugely popular ‘Scottish Symphony’, and Balakirev’s rarely heard Overture on Three Russian Themes, before the acclaimed German-Russian pianist, Olga Scheps takes the Durban City Hall by storm as the evening peaks with one of the international concert-going public’s best loved pieces, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No 2 in C minor.
