MAX BRUCH Violin Concerto No. 1 in G minor, Op. 26
GUSTAV MAHLER Symphony No. 2 in C minor "Resurrection"


HSBC is proud to present recipient of the 2009 HSBC Youth Excellence Award, the Orchestra of the Music Makers conducted by Chan Tze Law, with Mahler’s Second Symphony “Resurrection” and Bruch’s Violin Concerto No.1 in concert.

Gustav Mahler’s epic and invigorating “Resurrection Symphony” took six years to perfect and changed the musical landscape forever. Combining enormous orchestral forces with a massive chorus and two vocal soloists, the work takes the listener from solemnity to an apocalyptic conclusion, depicting earthly terror and heavenly glory. This is one of the most moving, uplifting and exhilarating symphonies ever written. The Orchestra of the Music Makers is joined by soprano Jeong Ae Ree, mezzo-soprano Rebecca Chellappah, the Queensland Festival Chorus and the Singapore Festival Chorus.


Max Bruch’s Violin Concerto No.1, with Singaporean violinist See Ian Ike as soloist, remains one of the most popular and lyrical Romantic concertos in the repertoire.

This is an event not to be missed!



Tickets at S$50, S$35, $27, S$18 and S$12 available at SISTIC.

Full ticket proceeds from this concert will be donated by HSBC to ChildAid.
