Programme:Bartok - Concerto for Orchestra
Tchaikovsky - Symphony No. 4
OUO’s Principal Guest Conductor Natalia Luis-Bassa returns to the Sheldonian Theatre in a concert that features Tchaikovsky’s 4th Symphony (1878), a powerful and emotionally charged work that explores fate, struggle, and personal turmoil. Tchaikovsky moves from melancholy to frenzied energy, before culminating in a triumphant finale in which joy and resilience overcomes.
In the first half, the orchestra plays Bela Bartok’s Concerto for Orchestra (1943), a soloistic showcase to launch our 2025/26 season! Blending Hungarian folk influences with 20th century harmonies and dynamic rhythm drive, Bartok moves similarly from darkness to triumph, echoing his years of exile and enduring optimism.
