We celebrate the vibrant career of Ōtautahi born composer Maria Grenfell with her work Stealing Tutunui. She brings to life the Māori story of the chief Tinirau, his whale Tutunui,and the sinister Kae, using the many colours of the orchestra.
Described as “easily the most compelling pianist of his generation,” Ukrainian-born Australian pianist Alexander Gavrylyuk is internationally recognized for his electrifying performances. Currently Artist in Residence at Wigmore Hall, London, he joins CSO to perform Tchaikovsky’s majestic Piano Concerto No. 1 – a popular favourite for concert pianists and audiences around the world.
Each section of CSO will take a turn in the spotlight during Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra – a masterpiece that highlights what we all love about the orchestra. It shows off the many sides to Bartók’s style: melodic charm, shadowy intensity, moments of rhythmic party music, and a notable ‘Game of Couples’ movement, where the families of woodwind and brass present themselves in pairs, offering a truly musical parade of our local talent.

Resonance Ensemble presents "Spirit of the Land"

Resonance Ensemble presents “Spirit of the Land” on Sunday 24th March 2024, 3.00 p.m. at The Piano, 156 Armagh Street, Christchurch

Colour, spectacle and richly soul-stirring expression are on offer as Resonance Ensemble, conducted by Tony Ryan, presents the music of Sibelius, Smetana and Weber at our first concert for 2024 on Sunday March 24, at The Piano.
We open this concert with the overture to Carl Maria von Weber’s last opera, Oberon, which was first performed in London in 1826. This short overture remains one of Weber’s most popular and colourful works, and the opera’s story about spirits and magic is brought vividly to life by Weber’s lively music.
Czech composer Smetana wrote music that expresses his deep connection with his homeland. His cycle of six symphonic poems Ma Vlast (‘My Fatherland’) is filled with the spirit of Bohemia’s folksongs and dances. Our concert features two movements from Smetana’s masterpiece. The second poem, Vltava (‘The Moldau’), describes the great river’s journey through the Czech countryside. The third movement tells the story of the female warrior Šárka, a central figure in ancient Czech legend.Sibelius’s glorious Symphony No. 3 is not only one of the Finnish composer’s finest but also one of his most heartfelt and personal works. Completed in 1907 when Finland was still struggling for independence from Russian control, Sibelius filled it with the heart and soul of his homeland.
Here are Spotify links to samples of each piece:
Carl Maria von Weber Overture to Oberon, J. 306Bedřich Smetana Vltava (The Moldau), No. 2 from Má Vlast (My Country)
Bedřich Smetana Šárka, No 3 from Má vlast
Jean Sibelius Symphony No 3:
First movement (Allegro moderato)
Second movement (Andantino con moto, quasi allegretto)
Third movement (Moderato—Allegro ma non tanto, con energia)

Tickets for this concert are available online at Humanitix, with no booking fee.
