World-leading chamber orchestra interprets monumental works
One of the world's leading ensembles, Camerata Salzburg, and internationally acclaimed cellist Trey Lee, Artistic Director of Musicus Society, conclude their multi-city Greater China tour in this concert with Beethoven's triumphant Symphony No. 7 in A and Shostakovich’s virtuosic Cello Concerto No. 1 in E-flat as highlights.
In the hands of Trey and the Camerata, the Shostakovich piece is a tour de force of the rhythmic power and relentless drive of his music, never giving up until the final note. As Camerata Salzburg's Musicus Fest debut, this concert is certain to showcase the exquisite subtlety and variety in their unique sound.
The resident orchestra of Salzburg’s Mozarteum Festival has appeared across the world in venues such as the Lucerne Festival, BBC Proms, Edinburgh International Festival, Enescu Festival in Bucharest, Beijing Music Festival and Carnegie Hall in New York, while Hong Kong’s own Trey Lee was praised as “a marvelous protagonist...a superb cellist” by the late great conductor Lorin Maazel.
