MAESTRO Yoshikazu Fukumura leads the PPO.
Continuing its 36th concert season, the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra (PPO) will hold its sixth concert on 8 February, 8 p.m., at the Tanghalang Nicanor Abelardo (Main Theater) of the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP).
Under the baton of Maestro Yoshikazu Fukumura, the PPO will perform Carl Maria von Weber’s “Der Freischutz Oveture,” Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s “Symphony No. 39, K.543 in flat major” and Johannes Brahms’s “Symphony No. 2, op 73 in D major.”
Originally, the program for the Concert Series V was set to feature Hungarian pianist and conductor Maestro Tamas Vasary, through the auspices of the Embassy of Hungary in the Philippines. But due to unforeseen circumstances, the Hungarian maestro could not perform in the country.
Maestro Fukumura has added a dynamic and innovative chapter to the constant evolution of PPO as its music director and principal conductor since 2016. Considered as a maverick in the classical music scene in Japan, Maestro Fukumura moved to his new post after his stint with Tokyo Ballet, Kyoto Municipal Symphony and Nagoya Philharmonic.
