The passion and drama of the Romantic Period are on full display
in this thrilling opening to our 44th concert season.
We begin with Glinka’s brilliantly orchestrated and exuberant Overture to Russlan and Ludmilla. Next, after his stunning Bozeman Symphony debut in 2009 and his equally successful appearance on our recital series last season, we’ll welcome back Spencer Myer, gold medalist from the 2008 New Orleans International Piano Competition, performing the virtuosic and universally adored second piano concerto of Camille Saint-Saëns. Finally we’ll present Tchaikovsky’s crowning achievement; the deeply profound Symphony No. 6, better known as the Pathétique.
Breathtaking!
