- **Event Description**: NZSO Artistic Advisor and Principal Conductor Gemma New with legendary pianist Sir Stephen Hough present a concert of charm, mystery and bold vision.

Programme:
Ross Harris Concerto for Orchestra (World Premiere)
Saint-Saëns Piano Concerto No. 5 Egyptian
Elgar Enigma Variations

Edward Elgar’s greatest masterpiece remains swathed in mystery.

His Enigma Variations, a set of 14 variations on a theme you never actually hear, has been the subject of both intense scrutiny and great love, thanks to the compositional genius and throbbing heart pulsing in these compelling variations.

Similarly, Saint-Saëns’ Fifth Piano Concerto has beguiled audiences with its Eastern-inspired sounds — hence its Egyptian nickname. To weave his own spell on us, legendary pianist Sir Stephen Hough returns to our shores. Praised by Limelight for possessing “an other-worldly stillness and strength [and] the perfect technique combined with the utmost poetic fluency”, Hough promises to transport us to another world.

We proudly premiere Ross Harris’ Concerto for Orchestra. A four-time winner of the SOUNZ Contemporary Award, Harris’ artistry and bold vision electrifies this newly commissioned work, driving the orchestra to new heights.
