Britain’s Chauhan has garnered rave reviews by critics and audiences worldwide. In his Vancouver debut, he brings his "flair for captivating performance to one of the greatest of all British symphonies, Elgar’s First," the VSO raves in a pre-concert post.
"With a reputation as one of the pre-eminent interpreters of Chopin, we welcome Argentinian Ingrid Fliter in Chopin’s lyrical and dramatic Second Piano Concerto. Zoltan Almashi’s Maria’s City opens the program in a heartfelt ode to the Ukrainian city of Mariupol."
This weekend (March 21-23), the VSO's national tour comes to a close with three performances of Dvořák’s "New World Symphony" at Orpheum Theatre in Vancouver.
