Under the direction of its young conductor Nicolas Ellis, a Radio-Canada 2018 Révélation classique, l’Orchestre de l’Agora is a musical collective that aims to reinvent the role of the classical musician in the community by capitalizing on their talent and commitment. Nothing less. In this concert, each work features different section leaders, who take turns performing solo parts.
PROGRAM Orchestre de l’Agora Nicolas Ellis, conductor Tchaikovsky: Serenade for string orchestra, Op. 48 Grieg: Holberg Suite, Op. 40 Bartok: Divertimento for String Orchestra Stravinsky: Concerto in D
The Agora Orchestra embodies the next generation of classical music in Montreal. Under the direction of its founder, Nicolas Ellis, this group brings together excellent performers in their twenties. With a maestro of their age, they explore different classical repertoires from all eras and often try to unearth works by great composers that are not part of the obvious repertoire.
