Fireworks indoors?! Indeed! The quintessential love theme, Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet Fantasy is full of sweeping melodies that perfectly evoke the breathless passion of the two young lovers. When Prokofiev premiered his Fifth Symphony in 1945—conducting it himself in the Great Hall of Moscow Conservatory—Prokofiev considered it the culminating accomplishment of his career, conceived “as glorifying the grandeur of the human spirit … praising the free and happy man—his strength, his generosity, and the purity of his soul.” Others had even higher praise: after the U.S. premiere by Serge Koussevitzky and the Boston Symphony, Prokofiev was pictured on the cover of Time magazine, and Koussevitzky called the work “the greatest musical event in many, many years. The greatest since Brahms and Tchaikovsky! It is magnificent! It is yesterday, it is today, it is tomorrow.” The concert is rounded out with the Southern United States premiere of Daniel Perttu’s Valor, a powerful and lyrical work about heroism, including the battles heroes face.TICKET & GENERAL INFORMATION:
