This concert opens with Brahms’ expressive Tragic Overture, with triumphant brass and heroic strings.
Mendelssohn’s tender and emotive Violin Concerto is rightly considered one of the greatest and showcases the talent of this evening’s soloist, Jack Liebeck. Dvořák’s Symphony No.7 perfectly balances dramatic power and irresistible lyricism. With its arresting opening, gorgeous slow movement, dancing Scherzo and thrilling Finale, this is one of the greatest pieces Dvořák ever wrote.
