Tzigane, Boutin-Bourque, & Gunter – Schubert Symphony No. 9
About this event
Canadian composer Jacques Hétu’s Légendes weaves three Québec folk tales into devilishly clever orchestral storytelling, rich in colour and dramatic flair. Richard Strauss’s Concertino for Clarinet and Bassoon offers a rare and playful spotlight for two wind soloists, and provides a special opportunity to feature Victoria Symphony’s own principal players, David Boutin-Bourque (Principal Clarinet) and Jennifer Gunter (Principal Bassoon), in a work full of wit, lyricism, and elegant dialogue. Schubert’s monumental Ninth Symphony crowns the program: a vast, life-affirming journey often likened to a four volume novel that leaves you yearning for more. Guest conductor Eugene Tzigane unites these works through a shared fascination with storytelling, character, and symphonic scale. KNOW BEFORE YOU GO Concert duration: Approx. 105 minutes including one 20 minute intermission. Pre-Concert Chat: Please join us at 1:40 pm in the west lobby for a pre-concert chat featuring guest conductor Eugene Tzigane, VS Principal Clarinet David-Boutin Bourque, and VS Principal Bassoon Jennifer Gunter.
