Finale: Adagio lamentoso \nABOUT THIS EVENT \nAbove  them  flew  Birdie  chirping  merrily. “My\, what  brave  fellows  we  are\,  Peter  and  I!   Look what  we  have  caught!”  \nAnd  if  one  would  listen  very  carefully\,  he  could hear  the  duck  quacking  inside  the  wolf; because  the  wolf  in  his  hurry\,  had  swallowed her  alive. \n– from Peter and the Wolf by Sergei Prokofiev (1936) \nThe YST Orchestral Institute under the direction of Principal Conductor Jason Lai\, featuring Kuo Lyu-Yan (B.Mus3\, Piano)\, present a concert which\, amidst ongoing international conflicts\, contemplates life’s heroes\, heroines\, and the power of overcoming the “wolves” of our lives\, whether they come from external challenges or internal states of being. This concert with Lyu-Yan is the third of our 2021-22 Concerto Competition Prizewinner Showcase series. \nThe wolf-filled turbulent world of one hundred years ago – following on from the 1918 global flu pandemic and emergence out of World War I (1914-18) – had personally profound impacts for the young Ukrainian-born Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953)\, who in fleeing the Russian Revolutions of 1917\, went into self-exile for nearly two decades\, returning to the Soviet Union only in 1936. \nThe ebullient nervous energy of Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto No. 3\, composed between 1917-21\, reflects the turbulence of the day as well as the rock-star confidence of a world-renowned concertizing pianist-composer in the bloom of his career. A passion that didn’t go unnoticed by the young Spanish-American soprano\, Lina Codina\, who first met Prokofiev in 1918 (and who would marry in 1923) – a presence we may hear in the Spanish-tinged castanet and trumpet infusions in the first movement of Prokofiev’s pianistic masterpiece. \nThe music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s (1840-93) Symphony No. 6\, Pathétique\, captures the passions\, loves and tragedies of a compassionate life well lived: our lives as the every-Peters and the wolves we confront along the way. As Tsarist Russia’s first truly international composer – but one whose closeted homosexuality made his personal life perennially painful – Tchaikovsky’s ever-popular melodic style transcends borders and time. In Tchaikovsky’s words the music begins with\, “the ultimate essence of the thirst of activity\,” but ultimately concludes with one of the most sublimely haunting finales in all of the symphonic repertoire – perhaps a fittingly poignant lament appropriate for many of the world’s current ills. \nProgramme booklet \nSupported by: \n \nSubscribe to YST’s mailing list. \nTICKETING INFORMATION \nTickets at $9 via SISTIC.
