Music on Sundays 3: Fanfare & Flight

With entertaining and informative hosts, the Music on Sundays concerts are the perfect pre-lunch activity in the heart of South Bank, in a convenient 90 minute timeslot

Led by conductor Tianyi Lu, this concert opens with two commanding fanfares: Copland’s iconic tribute to the common man, and Joan Tower’s powerful counterpoint for the uncommon woman.

Chausson’s Poème follows unfolding in a single arc of introspective beauty, showcasing the expressive talent of Associate Concertmaster Glenn Christensen.

From there, we enter the rich world of Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake. You’ll hear selections from all four acts from the sweeping dances and tender scenes to the dramatic character pieces.

A journey through proclamation, introspection, and storytelling, woven into one unforgettable program.
