Join the YSO for a powerful concert that celebrates both deep roots and bold new horizons!
Mussorgsky’s Dawn on the Moskva River opens the concert. A luminous prelude chosen by Maestro Ochsner as a fitting symbol of renewal and the dawning of a new and exciting season for the YSO. From there, we journey into the elemental sound world of Icelandic composer Anna Thorvaldsdottir. Her 2022 work ARCHORA is a mesmerizing exploration of primordial energy with music that seems to breathe, shift, and transform, reminding us of the enduring power that sustains orchestral art through time. The first half concludes with the optimistic spirit of Mendelssohn’s Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage, a musical wish for success in this new chapter.
We then return to the Maestro’s Nordic heritage with Carl Nielsen’s Symphony No. 4, “The Inextinguishable.” Written in the shadow of the First World War, this triumphant work is a celebration of the elemental will to live. It is not an expression of doubt, but a powerful testament to the inevitable endurance and flowering growth of the human spirit — and of music itself.
