NEW SHOWS AT THE PHILHARMONIC

Treat yourself to baroque favourites by Bach as sung by the lovely Malin Christensson, before exploring distant frontiers by taking a ride on Connesson’s Supernova this November. See posters below for details.

You also won’t want to miss Dewan Filharmonik PETRONAS’ comedy & music showcase for the season. Tickets for Being Gidon Kremer and A Little Nightmare Music on November 16 and 17 respectively are selling fast. Monty Python’s Terry Jones describes the show as bringing “surrealism to the concert hall and taking its trousers down! Very musical, very engaging and very funny.” Watch a preview at www.igudesmanandjoo.com.
