Dedicated to Spanish virtuoso Pablo de Sarasate-one of the most lauded of violinists-the Third Violin Concerto will dazzle and delight.

Composed at a time when women were excluded from professional life, the concert opens with Fanny Mendelssohn’s only existing work for orchestra, the Overture in C, and closes with brother Felix’s Symphony No 5, ‘Reformation’.

On the podium is trailblazing South Korean Shiyeon Sung, conducting the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra for the first time.
