Romance fills the stage in Rachmaninov’s achingly beautiful Piano Concerto No. 2, performed by the WAAPA Symphony Orchestra and showcasing the award-winning pianist Joshua Noronha. The untamed passion continues with Australia's most highly-awarded soprano Emma Matthews performing music from Australian composer Elena KatsChernin’s ravishing Wild Swans Suite. It’s a night of romantic music at its absolute best!
