WHAT'S INTERESTING ABOUT THIS CONCERT

  • Fun for people of all ages, Britten's Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra uses a catchy theme to introduce different instruments in the orchestra one by one, making it a great way to learn about the symphony.
  • Former Resident Composer Mason Bates invokes the spirit of Disney’s classic Fantasia in his Grammy-winning concerto for orchestra and animated film, guided by a mischievous sprite. 
  • Brahms' fourth and final symphony is a deeply emotional, poignant masterpiece. Even though he lived on for more than a decade after its premiere, it was the last symphony Brahms ever wrote and many consider it to be the pinnacle of his career. 

approx. 1 hour 50 minutes, with one intermission
