Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony opens the concert with an unmistakable surge of energy—music that transformed struggle into triumph and reshaped the symphonic tradition. From its iconic opening to its exhilarating conclusion, the symphony stands as a testament to resilience and artistic conviction. Performances by the winners of our 36th annual Young Artist Competition then bring fresh perspective and vitality to the stage, spotlighting the next generation of musical leaders. The concert closes with Carlos Simon’s WAKE UP!, a high-energy concerto for orchestra driven by propulsive rhythms and vivid orchestral color. The result is a powerful contemporary statement that feels immediate and alive.Featured Works:
