Fremantle Chamber Orchestra conducted by John Keene

Fremantle Chamber Orchestra is thrilled to introduce award winning Double Bassist John Keene as soloist in Bottesini’s great Concerto No 2.

It is Mr Keene's WA debut as soloist with an orchestra and as conductor with FCO.  Also, the combination of double bass player and conductor is a novelty. 

The performance opens with the Symphony in D major by the neglected Beethoven contemporary Ignaz Pleyel, followed by a solo work by the virtuoso Giovanni Bottesini. 

The Intermezzo by Kurt Magnus Atterberg, a Swedish composer, creates a rich tapestry which complements Haydn’s Symphony no 60, full of classic joy and surprises.
