Synopsis

The Orchestra of the Music Makers presents an evening of powerful 20th century repertoire featuring world-renowned cellist Qin Li-Wei and conductor Alexandre Bloch, former Music Director of the Orchestre National de Lille.

 

Qin Li-Wei, laureate of the Tchaikovsky and Naumburg competitions, performs Shostakovich's Cello Concerto No. 1, a deeply personal work featuring the composer's musical signature and virtuosic writing. The orchestra tackles Mahler's epic Symphony No. 7 “Song of the Night”, a journey from darkness to light showcasing the composer's most adventurous orchestration, featuring mandolin, guitar, cowbell and tenor horn.

 

Experience two towering masterworks in one unforgettable concert.
