DEWAN FILHARMONIK PETRONAS CONTINUES TO PRESENT EXCITING CONCERTS IN QUARTER 3 OF 2025

Dewan Filharmonik PETRONAS (DFP), located in the middle of the PETRONAS Twin Towers, continues to present a host of dazzling concerts. With the theme ‘Where Every Beat Tells A Story’, the concert presentations will cater to a diverse range of tastes and preferences.

We kicked off June 2025 with a movie screening of award-winning movie The Godfather with ‘live’ music accompaniment by the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra (MPO). Audiences were treated to a screening of one of the greatest movies in the history of cinema, in high definition on the big screen in the concert hall with a simultaneous performance of its soundtrack by the MPO under the baton of Gerard Salonga. Popular Indonesian indie band Parade Hujan will dazzled fans performing hits from its inception days in 2006 right up to the recent hit.

South Korea-born violin virtuoso Bomsori Kim enthralled fans of classical music with a performance of Bruch’s Violin Concerto No.1 with the MPO. Under the leadership of conductor Jaume Santonja, the MPO also performed other masterpieces such as Schumann’s Overture to Byron’s Manfred and one of Rachmaninoff’s finest scores, Symphonic Dances.

Upcoming from Jul – Sep 2025

Travel back in time to the glamourous Hollywood’s Golden Age with conductor Richard Balcombe as he steers magic on the MPO in a programme featuring two of the biggest names in American music; Judy Garland and Frank Sinatra. Listen to evergreen songs such as Somewhere Over The Rainbow (from ‘The Wizard Of Oz’), The Boy Next Door (from ‘Meet Me in St. Louis’), The Man That Got Away (from ‘A Star Is Born’) and You’re Sensational (from ‘High Society’) with vocalists Katie Birtill and Graham Bickley. Relive the gilded glamour on 12 Jul.

Featuring ARTISTANA Istana Budaya and Orkestra Tradisional Malaysia, this presentation will witness a performance of East Coast legendary folktales such as Cik Siti Wan Kembang, Princess Walinong Sari and the seven princesses of Ulik Mayang delivered in a magical glory full of mysticism. Savour the richness of our priceless heritage in this rare offering.

The first of two-part Chopin Festival will commence on 16 Aug where audience will be dazzled with the composer’s popular works under the masterful guidance of MPO’s Music Director, Junichi Hirokami.
