W.A. MOZART Violin Concerto No. 5, “Turkish”
ANTONÍN DVOŘÁK Symphony No. 8
Lift your spirits out of the post-holiday winter blues with Antonín Dvořák’s sunny and cheerful Eighth Symphony. This colorful and optimistic piece contains bird calls, a summer’s day interrupted by a thunderstorm, a waltz and a rustic folk dance, with melodies based on the Bohemian folk tunes Dvořák loved and frequently used to splendid effect. This concert also includes Mozart’s final violin concerto, nicknamed “Turkish” for the last movement’s zesty dance inspired by Turkish military bands.
