Julian Light Operatic Society
The Gondoliers
Gilbert & Sullivan
A traditional production of this sparkling and witty G&S show

The Julian Light Operatic Society returns to Questors with a traditional production of one of Gilbert and Sullivan’s most popular works, The Gondoliers.

It’s 1750 and news arrives in Venice that one of two gondoliers has become the new king of Barataria, but which of the two it is not yet clear. They are both newly married and the two couples, up till now fervent republicans, rather like the idea of being royal.

But then they find out that the king, whoever he is, was married in infancy to the daughter of a Spanish duke, so one of the gondoliers is an unintentional bigamist and neither of their wives will be a queen. And the duke’s daughter is not best pleased when she finds this out as she’s in love with someone else.

Somehow they sort all this out, with Gilbert’s brilliant lyrics and sharp wit and a lovely plot-twist, all set to the music of Sullivan at his most sparkling and tuneful.

A fully staged and costumed production, with orchestra and specially designed set.

Dates: 16-18 October
Times: 7:30pm, plus 2:30pm matinee on Saturday 18 October

Rivers and landscapes shape the course of this programme, which has its source in Spain and flows to Bohemia. The story of Falla’s Three-Cornered Hat centres around a miller, his beautiful wife and the local magistrate, and the music is packed with references to Spanish folk music. Turia is named after the Spanish river that meets the Mediterranean near Valencia, and the solo guitar shimmers and sparkles like sun on the water. From here we move further east and join another river, the Vltava, as it wends its way through Smetana’s beautiful musical depiction of his Bohemian homeland.

ULSTER ORCHESTRA | CLASSICAL ADVENTURES

Prokofiev Symphony No.1 Classical
Mozart Violin Concerto No. 5 Turkish
Beethoven Symphony No.1
MICHAEL COLLINS CONDUCTOR
ANTJE WEITHAAS VIOLIN
All the poise, elegance and grace of the Classical period is in this concert – on the surface. But each piece shows its composer in an inventive mood, pushing the boundaries of what was expected and creating something new. Prokofiev imagined how Mozart or Haydn might write in the 1920s and produced his charming First Symphony. Mozart used his Fifth Violin Concerto to play with tempo and style, creating his most brilliant, lyrical and witty writing for the instrument. And Beethoven’s First Symphony contains all the clues required to understand that this was no ordinary composer – he would take the symphony to somewhere entirely new.
Michael Collins: Our New Principal Guest Artist
We’re delighted that Michael Collins is joining us as Principal Guest Artist. Michael’s talents as both clarinettist and conductor will be on show across the next three seasons at the Ulster Hall, and as part of our regional and BBC broadcast activities. We’ve developed a close musical relationship with Michael over the last few seasons and are excited to see how this will develop, given Michael’s extraordinary musicality and the connection with our players.
