On February 17th, the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra (MPO) is joined by Artist-In-Residence of the New York Classical Players 2018–2021 and Sejong Arts Center in Seoul for its 40th anniversary season, featured artist during the 2018 Winter Olympics celebrations (PyeongChang, Korea), Cultural Ambassador for Daejeon, Korea, Sony Classical published recording artist, former Principal Flute of the Vienna Symphony under Fabio Luisi and Associate Principal of the Cincinnati Symphony under Paavo Jarvi, renowned Korean flautist Jasmine Choi.

The MPO will begin with a performance of Maltese composer Maurizo Schembri’s Cataclysmus, before welcoming Ms Choi to the stage to perform Alexey Shor’s delicately vivacious Flute Concerto in Bb. Following this, Ms Choi and the Malta Philharmonic will present a performance of Vivaldi’s popular Flute Concerto in D major, Op. 10, No. 3 “Il Gardellino” (RV 428). After a short intermission, the MPO returns for a rousing performance of Beethoven’s phenomenally well-known and iconic Symphony No. 5 in C minor, Op.67, a piece that is now considered to be a defining work of Western Classical music. This concert is presented by SAMIT Event Group and CMDI Group, with the support of the European Foundation for Support of Culture (EUFSC).
