Poetic Dances: SymfUni winter concert

SymfUni returns this autumn with a new programme called Poetic Dances, conducted by Rose Munk Heiberg. The concert brings together Kurt Weill's energetic and rhythmic Second Symphony, Missy Mazzoli's mysterious and intense Thesis Worlds Within Us, which receives its Danish national premiere here, and a selection of airs from Alexander Borodin's opera Prince Igor. Zoltán Kodály's folk-inspired Dances of Galánta rounds off the evening.

The concert takes place in the historic Festsalen at the University of Copenhagen, a striking setting for a full orchestral programme. The ensemble has also invited audiences to an earlier open-practice evening on 15 November, where they can hear parts of the programme and learn how an orchestral programme is prepared.
