Adam's Swansong concert
The Taranaki Symphony Orchestra (TSO) presents its Masterworks concert this Saturday. This is the Music Director, Adam Jasinski's last concert after conducting TSO for 23 years and presenting 73 concerts for the Taranaki public.
This concert has a special treat: Beethoven's Violin Concerto with violinist Helene Pohl. Helene is American trained, but has performed in many countries and is also leader of the NZ String Quartet. This concerto is possibly the most popular of all violin concertos.
