QSO Portraits: Alison Mitchell

This program is a celebration of Alison Mitchell – her artistry, agility, and unmistakable sound. At its centre is Reinecke’s Flute Concerto, a Romantic-era Treasure filled with warmth, elegance, and lyrical charm. 

Surrounding it is a handpicked selection of orchestral movements that highlight her expressive range: the playful grace of Schumann, the windswept beauty of Mendelssohn’s Scottish Symphony, and the heartfelt lyricism of Dvořák. The evening closes with the glowing final movement of Sibelius’ Symphony No.7. 

Led by Chief Conductor Umberto Clerici, this is a musical portrait of an artist in full bloom.
