Bursting with joy

Franz SCHUBERT Rosamunde: Overture
Judith WEIR Oboe Concerto
Wolfgang Amadeus MOZART Don Giovanni: Overture
Ludwig van BEETHOVEN Symphony No.2

Umberto Clerici conductor
Liz Chee oboe

Following his outstanding debut in 2022, Umberto Clerici returns to WASO with a program of brilliant classics.

With his Second Symphony, Beethoven put aside his inner turmoil to write music brimming with optimism and joy. From its boldly dramatic opening to its mischievous scherzo and boisterous conclusion, Beethoven’s breathtaking musical imagination is on full display. In between overtures from Schubert and Mozart, WASO’s Liz Chee is soloist in a new oboe concerto by Master of the King’s Music, Judith Weir.

WASO Songbook supported by Catherine Bagster in memory of Christine Bagster, Bernard & Jackie Barnwell, Geoff Stearn and Unnamed. Liz’s chair is supported by Ruth E. Thorn and Michael & Helen Tuite through the Duet program.
