For All Seasons with The klpac String Orchestra

The klpac String Orchestra, under the baton of Andrea Sim, brings you on a journey through three centuries of music.

Purcell’s Rondeau from Abdelazer launches the concert with regal energy followed by Percy Grainger’s Molly on the Shore with its folk-inspired music, while Karl Jenkins’s Palladio showcases a reimagining of Baroque concerto style. Contrasting the lyrical calm in Josef Suk’s Barcarolle is Astor Piazzolla’s Fuga y Misterio with its tango-infused drama.

Of course the highlight is Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, a timeless cycle that paints nature in sound from Spring to Winter, featuring soloists from The klpac String Orchestra: Chung Ann Qi, Leong Ee Leen, Zhang Xuan Rui and Ong Ting Qian.
