Adam Kerry Boyles leads a program rich in emotion and orchestral brilliance. Dvorák’s Cello Concerto in B minor, one of the most celebrated works for the instrument, performed by cellist Tommy Mesa. This sweeping, romantic masterpiece blends soaring melodies with moments of deep introspection, showcasing the cello’s expressive power.
Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2 follows, a lush and dramatic work filled with the composer’s signature sweeping themes and passionate intensity. Known for its expansive melodies and thrilling orchestration, this symphony has been interpreted in various lengths over time—Boyles’ approach promises a fresh and compelling experience.
From Dvorák’s heartfelt lyricism to Rachmaninoff’s grandeur, this program is a journey through two of the most deeply expressive works in classical music.
