Stella Chen debuts for Beethoven’s lyrical Violin Concerto. Mozart’s “Prague” Symphony masterfully showcases the composer’s bold orchestration and reflects his admiration for the city. The sweeping melodies of Smetana’s The Moldau from Má vlast closes the concert, taking audiences on a musical journey along the Vltava River from Prague to the Czech countryside.
