Event details

As the most celebrated and well-known violinist of his native land, Lü Siqing has appeared with all major orchestras in China.
 
Lü Siqing was born in 1969 in Qingdao, China and began violin study with his father at four. As an eight-year-old, he was accepted by the Central Conservatory of Music as a special student-the youngest student ever accepted at the famed institution-and studied with Prof. Zhenshan Wang. At 11, Lord Yehudi Menuhin chose Lü Siqing to study at his school in London. In 1984 he returned to China for advanced studies at the Conservatory in Beijing, and, five years later, he studied with Dorothy DeLay and Hyo Kang at the Juilliard School.

The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra (MSO) is an orchestra based in Melbourne, Australia. It has 88 permanent musicians. Melbourne has the longest continuous history of orchestral music of any Australian city and the MSO is the oldest professional orchestra in Australia. The MSO performs to more than 200,000 people in Melbourne and regional Victoria in over 150 concerts a year. Its principal venue is Hamer Hall.

The Orchestra has its own choir, the MSO Chorus, following integration with the Melbourne Chorale in 2008.

The Orchestra relies on funding by the Victorian State Government and the Federal government and support from private corporations and donors. It is supported by Symphony Services International. Sophie Galaise joined the MSO as its first female Managing Director in 2016. Its current Chairman is Michael Ullmer.
