Program
As we commence the historic centennial season, our program pays homage to the past while embracing the future. Jean Sibelius‘s Finlandia, a poignant tone poem featured in the inaugural Curtis Symphony Orchestra concert, sets the stage. Plus, a virtuosic performance of Jennifer Higdon’s Concerto 4-3 with genre-defying ensemble Time for Three, that seamlessly blends classical precision with the energy of a garage band. Sergei Prokofiev‘s Symphony No. 5 follows, igniting the stage with optimism, tension, and fervor.
