Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Symphony, K.196 "La finta giardiniera", K.196/121, D major
Benjamin Britten, Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings, op.31
Michael Tippett, Fantasia Concertante on a Theme of Corelli
Franz Joseph Haydn, Symphony No.6, D major "Le matin"
Two charming early works by Mozart and Haydn contrast with two English 20th century works. Britten's Serenade will be sung by Pene Pati, winner of the New Zealand Aria competition. He was also finalist in the 2010 McDonald's Aria in Australia. It sets poetry on the subject of night by Tennyson, Blake, Keats and others. The Fantasia Concertante is one of Tippett's most popular and frequently performed works.
"Richard Bonynge singled out tenor, Pene Pati, 22, whom he described as having a voice from the gods." Sydney Morning Herald
