Mozart Symphony No 1 in E flat, K16
Beethoven Concerto for Violin, Cello and Piano in C, Op 56
Mozart Symphony No 41 in C, K551, ‘Jupiter’

A trio of outstanding musicians – Emma McGrath, Jonathan Békés and Konstantin Shamray – bring verve and vitality to Beethoven’s one and only concerto for three solo instruments. Composed during one of Beethoven’s most energetic periods, the Triple Concerto is a singular masterwork, a tribute to the composer’s imagination and flair.

The concert opens with Mozart’s little-known Symphony No 1 – composed when Wolfgang Amadeus was aged only eight or nine – and closes with his mighty ‘Jupiter’ symphony, the crowning achievement of his career as a symphonist. The Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra welcomes back charismatic maestro Otto Tausk for this feast of classical treasures.
