We welcome spring on March 12th with a performance of Robert Schumann’s Spring Symphony, a work completed in a burst of inspiration at lightning speed – just over a month! After intermission, we’re transported to Scotland with Bruch’s rhapsodic Scottish Fantasy featuring Paul Huang, a young violinist whose star is on the rise. Peter Maxwell Davies’ An Orkney Wedding, with Sunrise brings the concert to a celebratory and unforgettable conclusion!
Will there be Concert Conversations with Chris Confessore for this concert? Yes
