For me, this concert is a great opportunity for our audience to get to know their NACO neighbours at a deeper level. Many are familiar with NACO’s leading soloists, as they are often featured, but the orchestra is such a complex organism, the whole only the sum of its parts, really. When we consider the oboe, listeners may remember the distinctive “A” the principal oboist plays at the beginning of each concert but they may not get a chance to get to know individual players. This concert introduces us to Anna Petersen, who plays 2nd oboe in NACO. I’m excited to hear some of her chamber favourites and thoughts on music.
