Our season opener kicks off with Verdi’s electrifying La Forza del Destino Overture, a masterwork of operatic tension and sweeping emotion, where the power of fate is announced with bold brass and lyrical fervor. Soloist Alexi Kenney then takes the stage with Korngold’s Violin Concerto, a fusion of Romantic concert tradition with the shimmering warmth of Hollywood film music, featuring sweeping melodies, dazzling virtuosity, and heartfelt emotion.
Musical transcendence follows with a mesmerizing fusion of medieval chant and modern orchestral color inspired by the mystical idea of spiritual transformation in Christopher Theofanidis’s Rainbow Body. The evening’s transformation concludes with Paul Hindemith’s Symphonic Metamorphosis, a vibrant and witty orchestral showcase that reimagines themes by Carl Maria von Weber through a kaleidoscope of bold rhythms, brilliant textures, and modern verve.
