Here is a journalistic translation of the news report, crafted to suit the style of international arts and culture publications: Cairo Symphony Orchestra Continues its Global Musical Journey at the Opera House The Egyptian Opera House, under the leadership of Dr. Ala’a Abdelsalam, continues its "Global Musical Journey" series with a performance by the Cairo Symphony Orchestra. Led by the renowned Maestro Nader Abbassi and featuring violinist Mirna Sourour, the concert will take place on Sunday, January 11, at 8:00 PM at the Grand Theater. Part of the Egyptian Ministry of Culture’s initiative to showcase high-caliber performing arts, the evening’s program features a curated selection of masterpieces by world-class composers, including: * Édouard Lalo: Symphonie Espagnole * Camille Saint-Saëns: Concerto for Horn and Orchestra * Ottorino Respighi: Pines of Rome A personal highlight of the evening will be the performance of "Childhood Memories," a piece composed by Maestro Nader Abbassi and dedicated to his mother. The work is inspired by a melody she sang to him as a child—a tune that has stayed with him throughout his life, despite its mysterious origins. The Cairo Symphony Orchestra’s current season is marked by its collaboration with prestigious international and Egyptian conductors and soloists. It remains committed to fostering emerging talent while introducing audiences to rare classical gems from both the global and Egyptian repertoires.
