401 Greenhill Road,

🎼Program
1️⃣ — Euryanthe Overture
Based on themes from Weber’s 1823 opera, this overture is admired for its dramatic contrasts and vivid orchestration. It blends heroic brilliance with a mysterious central section, showcasing Weber’s pioneering early Romantic style.
2️⃣ — Harp Concerto in E flat major, Op. 74
✨️✨️ : ✨️✨️
Written in 1938 with technical collaboration from harpist Ksenia Erdely, this concerto combines classical clarity with lush Romantic colour. Its lyrical first movement, graceful variations, and sparkling finale highlight the harp’s expressive and virtuosic range — beautifully brought to life by soloist Josh Layne, an internationally recognised Canadian harpist known for his nuanced interpretations and captivating stage presence.
3️⃣ — Symphony No. 2 in D major, Op. 73
Composed during a peaceful summer retreat in 1877, this symphony is often described as Brahms at his most pastoral. Its warm, flowing melodies and radiant orchestral writing culminate in a jubilant finale that feels like sunlight breaking through.
Conductor:
This is a fantastic opportunity to experience the power and beauty of a full symphony orchestra, right here in Burnside. Whether you're a seasoned concert-goer or new to classical music, "Bloom" promises to be an unforgettable experience
