Music Director Laureate Carlos Kalmar leads a program exploring the invincibility of the human spirit. Strauss's songs of farewell, with their radiant lyricism, offer hope and solace in the autumn of life, while Nielsen's thrilling Fourth Symphony looks to transcend the anguish of World War I, culminating in a spectacular duel for two timpanists.
