Mozart and Schumann
Featured Artist
Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider
Feel the blaze of inspiration in works by great composers in peak form! Mozart’s graceful Concerto was one of four he wrote in a single year, at the age of just 19. Schumann’s grand “Rhenish” Symphony captures the awe he felt when he first visited the towering Cathedral in Cologne. Mendelssohn tossed off his Overture to Ruy Blas in a storm of creativity. And South Korean composer Unsuk Chin brings heart-racing heat to a five-minute piece that leaves you breathless.
