With Music Director Lim Yau, a recipient of the Cultural Medallion and COMPASS Lifetime Achievement Award, at the helm, the evening also features two other Rachmaninoff favourites: the soulful Vocalise and the sentimental, colourful Symphonic Dances - lush, melodic works that define the term "Romantic".
