Dvořák In Nature’s Realm, Op. 91 *Side-by-Side
Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 35
Brahms Symphony No. 2 in D major, Op. 73
Leia Zhu violin
Marios Papadopoulos conductor
Overlooking a lake in the Austrian resort of Pörtschach, Johannes Brahms wrote a symphony that captured all he saw: the beauty of the sunset, the stillness of the night, a new day awakening.
Brahms’s symphony of light and shadows tells of the magnificence of creation, but with a ribbon of mourning tied around its arm.
Before Marios Papadopoulos conducts what is surely the composer’s best-loved symphony, the astonishing prodigy Leia Zhu takes on Tchaikovsky’s powerful and poetic Violin Concerto.
