Shui Lan & Shanghai Symphony Orchestra
About the Event
The SSO will play Brahms’ Symphony No.2 under the baton of Shui Lan, who has been the music director of the Singapore Symphony Orchestra for 18 years.
After waiting many years to complete his First Symphony, Brahms produced a second one almost overnight, in which “…the melodies flow so freely that one must be careful not to trample on them.”
Practical Information
As Asia’s oldest orchestra, the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra brought Western classical music to China. Today, it remains a world‐class orchestra which attracts internationally renowned artists while it still retains its Chinese essence: the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra is a beacon of culture and arts for the city of Shanghai.
