SUMMARY:Nova Sinfonia & Brittany Cann perform the classics
DESCRIPTION:Join Nova Sinfonia for an evening of dramatic orchestral music and brilliant vocal artistry as the orchestra continues its 30th Anniversary Season. Under the direction of Greg Burton\, the program welcomes acclaimed soprano Brittany Cann for a selection of powerful operatic arias by Mozart and Beethoven. \nThe concert opens with Mozart’s Symphony No. 24 in B-flat major\, K.182\, a vibrant early work full of elegance and youthful energy. Brittany Cann then takes the stage for Beethoven’s thrilling “Abscheulicher!… O komm\, Hoffnung”from Fidelio\, followed by two beloved Mozart arias: Donna Anna’s dramatic “Non mi dir\, bell’idol mio” from Don Giovanni and the Countess’s deeply expressive “Porgi\, amor” from Le nozze di Figaro. \nThe orchestra will also perform Frederick Delius’s Two Pieces for Small Orchestra\, music of shimmering colour and lyrical beauty\, before concluding the evening with Beethoven’s Symphony No. 1 in C major\, Op. 21\, a work that marks the bold arrival of Beethoven’s symphonic voice.

SUMMARY:heartSTRINGS! Cheng & Balourdet Quartet
DESCRIPTION:For his final residency concert of the season\, our 2025/26 Musician-in-Residence cellist Bryan Cheng\, joins the prize-winning Balourdet Quartet—who wowed our Halifax audience just a couple of years ago—for a captivating evening of chamber music that bridges the sensuous sound world of French Impressionism and the emotional depth of the Viennese Romantic tradition. The program features Maurice Ravel’s luminous “String Quartet in F major\,” a piece renowned for its shimmering textures\, rhythmic vitality\, and refined harmonic palette. Equally compelling is Franz Schubert’s monumental “String Quintet in C major\,” widely regarded as one of the greatest achievements in the chamber music repertoire—introspective\, expansive\, and rich with lyrical beauty. Cheng\, known for his interpretive insight and expressive range\, brings added resonance to Schubert’s poignant score\, while the Balourdet Quartet delivers performances marked by warmth\, clarity\, and a deep sense of ensemble connection. Together\, these five string players offer a richly layered musical experience that balances structure with spontaneity\, lightness with gravity\, and precision with heart. Presented with the generous support of Musician-in-Residence Presenting Partner – Lang Optometry and Eyewear. Season Sponsor: Nice Moves / Red Door Realty. \nTickets: $30-42
