SZYMANOWSKI Violin Concerto No. 2

SCHUBERT Symphony No. 9, "Great"

 

The Cleveland Orchestra’s 2019 Carnegie Hall opening night performance was called “virtually flawless” (The New York Times). That’s exactly the level of excellence audiences have come to expect each time music director Franz Welser-Möst leads this outstanding orchestra. Their versatility is showcased in this program that features a work by a revered African American composer, a Szymanowski concerto influenced by Polish folk melodies, and Schubert’s magnificently melodic and emotionally powerful “Great” Symphony. Part of: Great American Orchestras and Carnegie Hall Live on WQXR.
