Cyprus Symphony Orchestra
Günter Neuhold
The Cyprus Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of Günter Neuhold, performs the world premiere of two works by contemporary Cypriot composers, as well as one of the greatest early works of Arnold Schönberg.
Andreas Orphanides’ Concerto “Cyprus Zephyr”, musically depicts the events that the so-called Zephyrus wind brings to Cyprus. Violinist and CySO member Marios Ioannou is the featured soloist in Constantin Papaeorgio’s Concerto for violin and strings, influenced by minimalism and neoclassicism. According to Schönberg, his innovative tone-poem Verklärte Nacht (Transfigured Night) “restricts itself to sketching nature and expressing human emotions”.
