Renowned French violinist Augustin Dumay will perform Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 2 in D major with the Singapore Symphony Orchestra at the Esplanade on September 5, conducted by Lan Shui.
Hailed by The Strad magazine as the “legitimate heir to the royal Belgian line of Ysaye and Grumiaux”, Augustin Dumay appears regularly with the leading orchestras of the world under the direction of the greatest contemporary conductors as well as a soloist and conductor with the best chamber orchestras.
Since 2003 he has been the Principal Conductor of the Royal Chamber Orchestra of Wallonia and, since 2008, the Principal Guest Conductor of the Kansai Philharmonic Orchestra (Osaka). His discography, which includes some forty recordings, is available on the Deutsche Grammophon and EMI labels.
The Singapore Symphony Orchestra will also perform the Tenth Symphony by Dmitri Shostakovich, one of the important works he composed following Stalin’s death in 1953. -- www.sso.org.sg
