Venue - Sherbrooke Mosspark Church
What a great concert! Our all-Brahms evening in Sherbrooke
Mosspark church opened with a rousing performance of his
Academic Festival Overture, after which we were all
mesmerised by the beautiful playing of our soloist Victor
Pevernagie, in the glorious Violin Concerto. Victor came
with a strong following of family and friends, which boosted
our already large audience, and gave him a huge reception at
the end of the piece. This was enough to encourage Victor to
give us an encore, and his playing of an arrangement of “The
Bonnie Banks o’ Loch Lomond” held the audience spellbound.
Well done Victor!
The second half comprised a performance of Brahms’ 4th
symphony, a mighty work that showcased all the sections of
the orchestra. Altogether a great evening of music! Well
done everyone, and again our thanks to our conductor, Robert
Baxter, for steering us through this challenging programme.
