The Macao Orchestra (OM, from the Portuguese acronym), under the auspices of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, will present “Henning Plays Mozart” on Saturday, 12 November, at the Macao Cultural Centre Grand Auditorium. Under the baton of the Music Director of Macao Orchestra Lü Jia, the outstanding Norwegian violinist Henning Kraggerud will present his solo performance. Tickets are available for sale through the Macau Ticketing Network. As one of the most outstanding musicians in Northern Europe, the Norwegian violinist Henning Kraggerud is reputed for his precise and keen performance. The Arts Desk hailed that “Kraggerud’s playing is consistently marvellous”. Henning has been invited in collaboration with many of the world’s most significant orchestras, including the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Vancouver Symphony Orchestra and the Danish National Symphony Orchestra. His interpretation of Mozart’s works has been highly acclaimed in music sector, and his performance was hailed by one critic as “the high point of the night. It was Mozart as, one suspects, Mozart himself would have wanted it played.” He is bringing with him two of his favourite classics of Mozart, namely Adagio in E Major for Violin and Orchestra and Violin Concerto No. 5, “Turkish”, offering music fans a rare concert not to be missed. In tandem with the theme of this concert season “My Time with Music”, the activity “Music Hour with Henning Kraggerud” will be held exclusively for Friends of the Macao Orchestra, which will allow the audience to understand the perseverance and devotion behind musicians.
