To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Collège Montmorency, the Orchestre symphonique de Laval offers a varied program: first, Brahms’s Academic Festival Overture, a work with ceremonious characteristics. That’s followed by a post-romantic discovery… written in the 21st century – Flute Concerto by Montreal composer Aïrat Ichmouratov, a commission from the OSL. Things continue with Edward Elgar’s intense Enigma Variations. The orchestra will once again be conducted by Alain Trudel and the guest soloist (for the Ichmouratov Concerto) will be the well-known flautist Robert Langevin.
