Darwin Symphony Orchestra – Two Fifths

Two powerful works draw the 2021 season to a triumphant close!

Don’t miss this spectacular finale featuring performances of two mighty orchestral works— Beethoven’s Fifth Piano Concerto and Shostakovich’s brooding Symphony No. 5.

Internationally acclaimed star pianist Shuan Hern Lee will join the orchestra for a stirring rendition of Beethoven’s ‘The Emperor’ Concerto.

Written during Stalin’s reign, Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 5 is a work of extraordinary courage and protest. Experience its smouldering power in this breath-taking performance.
