Event Details
S. Prokofiev, The Love for the Three Oranges
I. Stravinsky, Violin Concerto
S. Rachmaninoff, Symphony No. 2
Eckart Preu, conductor
Stefan Jackiw, violin
The early 20th century produced some of the greatest Russian composers. Sergei Prokofiev tried to seduce American audiences with The Love for the Three Oranges. One of the most original musical voices was Igor Stravinsky, here featured with his neoclassical violin concerto. The color and texture of the orchestral sound of Rachmaninoff breathe melody. His Symphony No. 2 displays mastery of carefully controlled suspense and everything else a symphony needs: liveliness, virtuosity, festiveness, dance and ultimate victory.
