Experience the power of the full orchestra with a musical journey through the Romantic Era. Starting our 129th season with Louise Farrenc’s concert overture, No. 2, a stand-alone work reflecting the Paris opera scene of her lifetime with drama and pathos. Continuing with Robert Schumann’s Symphony No. 3 which the composer premeired in Düsseldorf in February 1851 to such acclaim that it was repeated a month later. Completing our opening concert with the great Ludwig Van Beethoven’s “Emperor” concerto, a truly symphonic concerto which scholars agree was most likely not named by the composer, but rather by an early publisher who called it “Emperor” after supposedly overhearing the remark that it was “an emperor among concertos”.
