Avanti Orchestra Opening Concert for the 2024-25 Season!
The concert begins with Beethoven’s Fidelio Overture, a powerful narrative of a fearless woman’s fight against injustice, driven by unwavering faith and perseverance. We are delighted to feature Keng-Yuen Tseng, an incredible Taiwanese virtuoso and Silver Medalist at the Queen Elisabeth International Violin Competition, performing Bruch’s Violin Concerto No. 1. The evening’s highlight is Dvořák’s Symphony No. 9, “From the New World,” a masterwork that blends the composer’s European heritage with his American experiences, celebrating both a reverence for tradition and the discovery of new horizons.
