A fabulous start to
our 35th anniversary season!

We launch our 35th season with Manitoba’s own James Ehnes in the dual role of conductor and soloist. Identical concerts will be mounted in Brandon (the MCO’s début there) and in Winnipeg, in which Ehnes will perform all five Mozart violin concertos — each a masterpiece in its own right.

Brandon concerts

The Western Manitoba Centennial Auditorium at 205-20th Street in Brandon. For Brandon tickets call (204) 728-9510; one concert is $40; $70 for both (plus service charge; includes donation to Brandon University’s School of Music, for which you will receive a tax receipt).

Ehnes in Manitoba

James Ehnes is looking forward to performing these works with the MCO.
“I’m very excited about these upcoming concerts with the MCO; I first worked with the orchestra over a decade ago, and have known some of the musicians for most of my life! Mozart's violin concertos are among my very favourite pieces of music and I very much look forward to having the opportunity to perform them for the audiences of my home province.”
