DESCRIPTION:
EPO's 90TH ANNIVERSARY OPENING NIGHT BEGINS WITH FRANZ SCHUBERT’S OVERTURE TO ROSAMUNDE, PERFORMED IN OUR PHILHARMONIC’S INAUGURALCONCERT IN 1934. THE ORCHESTRA CONTINUES THE PROGRAM WITH ADAM SCHOENBERG’S ORCHARD IN FOG, COMPOSED IN 2018 AND WRITTEN SPECIFICALLY FOR OUR GUEST ARTIST ANNE AKIKO MEYERS, ONE OF THE WORLD’S MOST ESTEEMED VIOLINISTS. TCHAIKOVSKY’S FOURTH SYMPHONY IS ONE OF HIS MOST FAMOUS AND POPULAR WORKS. THE FIRST MOVEMENT IS DARK AND BROODING AND OPENS WITH A FANFARE FROM THE BRASS THAT DEPICTS FATE. THE FINALE IS VIRTUOSIC AND BREATHTAKING, LIKE 90 YEARS WITH OUR ORCHESTRA.
