Allan Zavod's original composition Oboe Concerto: "Resilient Spirit" 2011

Allan Zavod composed "Resilient Spirit", an Oboe Concerto, for World Famous Oboe Soloist Diana Doherty. Diana performed with the Queensland Youth Symphony on 26th March, 2011. Most appropriate then that it was this great Queensland musician, herself once a member of Queensland Youth Orchestras, who performed the work written specially for her and the QYS. The Concert took place at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre, and was conducted by John Curro (AM MBE). This substantial piece, was a new commission from QYS and was dedicated to the resilience of the People of Queensland during the 2011 floods.
