Ballade | Castlemaine Town Hall

On Sunday, November 17 at Malvern Town Hall, and again on Sunday, November 24 at Castlemaine Town Hall Stonnington Symphony are thrilled to be joined by Guest Conductor Carlos Del Cueto. Immerse yourself in a remarkable program that promises to captivate and inspire!

Johannes Brahms' Variations on a Theme by Haydn, Op.56 is filled with vibrant creativity and intricate variations, paying homage to the classical tradition while showcasing Brahms’ inventive genius. Coleridge-Taylor, known for his richly melodic and evocative style, crafts a stunning narrative in Ballade, reflecting both the elegance of the late Romantic period and the poignant beauty of his own unique voice.

This performance culminates with Ralph Vaughan Williams’ Symphony No.5 in D Major. Renowned for its serene and contemplative qualities, this symphony is a testament to Vaughan Williams’ mastery in creating lush, atmospheric soundscapes that resonate deeply with audiences.
