To finish off the celebration of the Strathcona Symphony Orchestra’s (SSO) 20th Anniversary season, Ms. Helena Jung, the orchestra’s Music Director, has chosen her favourites for the May concerts.

Featured will be a collection of music genres, ranging from the classical world such as Mahler’s Symphony No. 1, 3rd Movement, Dvorak’s Symphony No. 9, 2nd and 4th Movements to modern pieces including BTS Dynamite, and Hishaishi’s theme to the animated movie, Howl’s Moving Castle.

Winners of the SSO Concerto Competition, local flutists, Christine Constabel and Antonia Mahon, will be playing Cimarosa’s Flute Concerto for Two Flutes. Elliott Nakagawa, a talented young violinist from Nanaimo, was also a winner of the event, and he will be performing the Bruch Violin Concerto.
