Asia Tour: Taiwan & Japan

 

The season 2008 – 2009 kicks-off in Allegro con brio. In September and October, Ivan Meylemans will visit the large concert podia in Taiwan and Japan, first with the Taipei Symphony Orchestra in a programme in which he puts the spotlight on international trumpet virtuoso, Ole Edvard Antonsen, in  Tomasi’s concerto for trumpet, additional to the romantic repertoire of Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov (Symphony no. 2).


After his recent début (December 07) at the Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie, the orchestra and management reinvited, with unanimous approval, Ivan Meylemans to replace their outgoing chief-conductor, Andris Nelson, during an extensive Japan tour. Also here a romantic repertoire with symphonies and violin concertos by Beethoven, Brahms and Mendelssohn.
