Audience Feedback - Highlights from season 2023-4
"I could not have been more pleasantly surprised by how wonderful the playing of the instruments was and the absolutely fantastic sound generated in a relatively small concert hall ."
"The pianist was sensational and the whole experience left me in no doubt that it is the most enjoyable concert I have ever attended."
"... experiencing Alexander Doronin's total mastery of the work (Brahms's 1st piano concerto) was a tremendous experience. Well done to the SSO and Darrell Davison for providing such powerful and precise accompaniment."
"The Eroica was another powerful experience, It was wonderful to see and hear the orchestra meet the challenges of this epic work, and in particular the string section played with terrific authority and cohesion, reminding us of
why a live performance has the edge over even the best recordings!
"His (Darrell's') 'Garden of Delights' was an 'ear-opening' experience .. a terrific, entertaining and musical experience."
"The Orchestra were superb in playing the Symphonic Dances - one of their best performances for a long time. Everything about it was spot on."
"To me the test of any performance is when one - in the nicest possible way - forgets the artistry and dedication of the performers and engages directly with the music and the composers. Yesterday evening you enabled us to do exactly that."
"the 3rd movement of the Rachmaninov was a TOUR DE FORCE, Wow…!!"
"We liked the soloist who had the right kind of creamy voice for Strauss' last songs, which are an intensely moving farewell to his composing and, indeed, life."
