SUMMARY:CSO presents "Boulanger\, Barker\, Mahler"
DESCRIPTION:CSO presents “Boulanger\, Barber\, Mahler” on Saturday 30th November 2024\, 7.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m. in the Douglas Lilburn Auditorium\, Christchurch Town Hall\, Kilmore Street\, Christchurch. \n Be drawn into the dark and foreboding sound world of trailblazing French composer Lili Boulanger’s D’un soir triste – written shortly before her death at the age of just 24\, and full of musical expression beyond her years.  It was two years after the Second World War when Samuel Barber was commissioned to write Knoxville: Summer of 1915 by the Boston Symphony. Beautiful prose by the writer James Agee paints a picture of Tennessee in 1915\, where a small boy lies in the grass and describes the sounds around him. Barber masterfully evokes childhood memories in his orchestration\, and celebrated Aotearoa New Zealand soprano Anna Leese will sweep audiences up into the vivid scene.  Anna Leese also joins CSO for Mahler’s Fourth Symphony\, where the final movement is a soprano solo describing a child’s carefree vision of heaven\, with no music on Earth comparable to the music of the angels. It is known as Mahler’s charming and childlike symphony\, complete with jingling sleigh-bells\, but also brings the quintessentially epic Mahlerian orchestral forces that need to be experienced live for full effect. \n Benjamin Northey: Chief Conductor\nAnna Leese: Soprano\nLili Boulanger: D’un soir triste (Of a Sad Evening)\nBarber Knoxville: Summer of 1915\nMahler: Symphony No. 4 in G Major \nWebsite: http://www.cso.co.nz

DESCRIPTION:Toi Toi Opera presents “Summer of Opera 2024-2025” \nThe Billy Goats Gruff by John Davies (Sat 8 & Sun 9 Feb 2025 at 11am – North Quad\, Free/Koha) \nLast summer\, our family opera performances attracted approximately 1\,500 tamariki and whānau who experienced opera for free in an accessible and relevant environment – many for the very first time. \nThis February we’re bringing back the magic\, this time with an operatic version of The Billy Goats Gruff by John Davies\, with music based on scenes from the operas of Mozart\, Donizetti\, and Rossini.  \nAn after-school game of hide and seek is ruined for three little goat friends when a big bully blocks a bridge\, preventing them from being able to go home. Using what they’ve learned about bullies from their mums\, dads\, and teachers\, the trio prevails – teaching a very forlorn (and now rather soggy!) ex-bully an important lesson about forgiveness and friendship. \nA perfect introduction to the world of opera for the littlies in your life\, proving that nothing is more contagious than kindness. Join our stunning all-local cast and creative team for one of our two free performances in the North Quad (or The Great Hall\, if wet).
