This program features works spanning the 20th century. Hear Sibelius' powerful Violin Concerto performed by Benjamin Beilman, "the leading violinist of his generation."
Closing the program, we continue our celebration of John Adams with his Harmonielehre, or "book of harmony," a beautiful piece that joins minimalism with harmony. Adams writes, "the shades of Mahler, Sibelius, Debussy and the young Schoenberg are everywhere in this strange piece."
