SUMMARY:Vincent Ho\, Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra
DESCRIPTION: Karl Hirzer\, conductor\nDame Evelyn Glennie\, percussion\n\n\nFrom Darkness to Light – Vincent Ho*\nSymphony No 5 in D Minor\, Op 47 – Dimitri Shostakovich\n\n\nA landmark night for the SSO as we’re joined by Maestro Karl Hirzer and superstar percussion Dame Evelyn Glennie. \nMulti-Grammy award winner\, Glennie is one of the most sensational artists we’ve ever shared the stage with – the centrepiece of a night of mystical story telling when she performs Vincent Ho’s From Darkness to Light. \nKarl continues the theme bringing light to the darkness with Shostakovich’s towering 5th Symphony. An orchestral journey towards the light\, the work stands as a testament to Shostakovich’s defiance in the face of political oppression. \n*Denotes Canadian composer.

SUMMARY:Robert Ingari\, Luminous Voices
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, November 9\, 2025 at 3:00pm\nBella Concert Hall\, Mount Royal University \nwith\nLuminous Strings\nLaura Brandt\, soprano\nAdam Brousseau\, baritone \n\nFigure Humaine by Francis Poulenc headlines this program built on themes of war\, peace and freedom. Famously one of the most virtuosic and demanding works for unaccompanied choir\, Figure Humaine was composed during the German occupation of France in WWII. With text by poet Paul Éluard\, the final movement served as a rallying cry for the French resistance\, as the poem was air-dropped by the Royal Air Force in 1943. Only six years earlier\, Ralph Vaughan Williams composed his Dona nobis pacem as a plea for peace in a world growing increasingly fearful of another war. The orchestration features strings\, piano and percussion\, along with  the choir and local stars\, Laura Brandt and Adam Brousseau. The program will also feature a new work by Quebec-based composer-conductor Robert Ingari.
