Northern Rivers Symphony Orchestra’s Autumn Glow
By Madeleine Murray
THE DELIGHTFUL NORTHERN RIVERS SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA will perform an autumn concert at Tweed Heads on Sunday April 21.
The program features Tragic Overture by Johannes Brahms, Trumpet Concerto in E Flat by Joseph Haydn, and Robert Schumann’s Symphony No 4 in D Minor.
All are conducted by the charismatic, vivacious Marco Bellasi who grew up in Milan where his Australian mother sang at La Scala.
Tragic Overture by Brahms is a short, turbulent piece, with much drama and colour packed into 15 minutes.
Virtuoso trumpeter Tamaryn Marabito is the soloist in the Haydn concerto.
“Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto in E flat Major is an innovation in the world of trumpet repertoire,” Tamaryn told The Weekly. “Inspired by the invention of Weidinger’s keyed trumpet, Haydn wrote the concerto taking full advantage of and celebrating the new technical ability and sound of the instrument.
“It is a staple of trumpet repertoire. I’m very excited to be performing this revolutionary piece with the Northern Rivers Symphony Orchestra.”
Tamaryn completed a Bachelor of Music degree at the Queensland Conservatorium of Music in 2015. She assumed the flugelhorn position with the world-class Brisbane Excelsior Brass Band in 2017. In 2023, Tamaryn won the Open Slow Melody Competition at the Queensland State Brass Band Championships.
The final piece in the program is the majestic Symphony No 4 by Robert Schumann.
Autumn Glow is on at 2:30pm on Sunday April 21 at the Tweed Civic Centre, Brett St, Tweed Heads. For more info and tickets go to nrso.com.au. Tickets also at Murwillumbah Music or at the door, if not sold out. Enquiries 0478 012 324.
