Hidden classics

Embark on a thrilling musical odyssey with César Franck’s rarely performed symphonic masterpiece. From a thunderous opening to a triumphant finale, each movement unfolds like a captivating chapter in an epic saga. Surrender to its charms, and you’re drawn into the magic of this seldom performed gem.

Debussy’s symphonic poem, Prélude à 'L’après-midi d’un faune' evokes the languorous heat of a summer afternoon with its dreamy flutes and luscious orchestral colours.

Japanese-born Canadian violinist Karen Gomyo returns to WASO, bringing her musical vitality and radiant sound to Barber’s expressive concerto.
