The Metropolitan Orchestra (TMO) is offering an all strings program for its first concert of the year.

The program includes two well known pieces, Dvorak’s String Serenade and Tchaikovsky’s String Serenade. These pieces will be complemented by Australian composer Daniel Rojas’ fresh and vivacious piece Little Serenade for Strings.

Artistic Director of the TMO Sarah-Grace Williams will be the Conductor and she is very excited about the program, “Starting the year with a powerful string program is something we’ve wanted to do for some time. It sets the tone of intimacy while bringing out those joyous and passionate emotions which we love to inspire in our audiences.  This is a beautiful way for TMO to launch into what is going to be a huge year for the orchestra. We’re sure audiences will love this vibrant and sumptuous program.”

This promises to be an evening of pure string beauty. The performance will take place at 8pm on Saturday  20th February at the Eugene Goosens Hall, the ABC Centre, 700 Harris Street, Ultimo. The A-One Cafe in the ABC Centre is open from 7pm for pre-concert drinks and snacks. Bookings- www.metorchestra.com.au/tickets.
