Mendelssohn's string symphony nos 9 shall open the concert followed by the Little suite by one of the most important composers of the 20 th century Carl Nielsen. Maltese Music shall be represented by 'Music for strings' by one of Malta's most internationally performed living composers, Dr Jesmond Grixti. His works have been performed in prestigious halls such as Carnegie Hall.
The last piece of the evening shall be by the late Joseph Vella whose works are already part of the concert repertoire in Malta and elsewhere and form part of the national cultural heritage of the islands.
