MSO members, violinists Sara Maria Gonzales and Christian Tan, along with cellist Antoni Josef Inacay take on greater roles as soloists for this concert happening on August 19, 2014, 8:00 PM at the Cultural Center of the Philippines’ Tanghalang Aurelio Tolentino (CCP Little Theater).

Violinist Christian Tan
Cellist Anjo Inacay

Conducted by Arturo Molina, the MSO will kick off the concert with the explosive Overture from Ruslan and Lyudmila by Mikhail Glinka. And then it’s on to the concertos with Associate ConcertmasterSara Maria Gonzales tackling the very romantic Max Bruch’s Violin Concerto No. 1 in G minor, Op. 26. Assistant Concertmaster Christian Tan will take on Felix Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto in E minor, Op. 64. Both concertos are regarded as among the most important pieces for the violin. Principal cellist Antoni Josef Inacay will serve as the soloist for Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Variations on a Rococo Theme, Op. 33 which is the composer’s closest attempt in composing an actual cello concerto.

Conductor Arturo Molina
