Vincent Ho: Earthbeat 
Dvořák: Cello Concerto No. 1                                       
Prokofiev: Symphony No. 5

Named “Canada’s next big Cello star” by CBC Music, Cameron Crozman joins the HPO to perform one of the most celebrated works of the instrument’s repertoire, Dvořák’s Cello Concerto No. 1. Violin players of the HPYO join us for Vincent Ho’s Earthbeat, which draws from his experience with the Tsuut’ina Nation and the music and dance traditions shared at the community’s Powwow. To round out the program Prokofiev takes us on a beautiful and epic journey of humanity with his Fifth Symphony, written as an uplifting celebration of human spirit from the throws of WWII.

Sharing the joy of orchestral music at a young age is a great way to foster an appreciation and interest in the arts. Children age five and older are welcome at any Mainstage concert at FirstOntario Concert Hall with a youth ticket purchase. For children aged 5 and younger, the HPO recommends their Family Concert Series or performances at local libraries.
