22.01.2022 Today would have been the first rehearsal for our final performance for the year - A Celebration of Beethoven - featuring music by the composer in the 250th anniversary of his birth. Here is the Stonnington Symphony and Artistic Director Roy Theaker in full flight performing excerpts from Bruch's Violin Concerto in the 100th year since the composers passing at what would be our first and last performance for 2020 #keepthemusicplaying
