Robert Schumann — Konzertstück for Four Horns in F major, Op. 86
Felix Mendelssohn — The Hebrides, Op. 26 "Fingal's Cave"
Franz Schubert — Symphony No. 3 in D major, D. 200
This concert spotlights outstanding musicians from the National Symphony Orchestra in one of Schumann's unique works: the Konzertstück for Four Horns. You'll delight in this bubbly, beautiful masterwork—the horn-playing equivalent of running a four-minute mile!
How else can we finish such a lively program than with Mendelssohn's ever-popular overture, The Hebrides ("Fingal's Cave") and Schubert's Symphony No. 3? An amazing achievement from a composer still in his teens, Schubert’s Third is infectiously fun with sunny D major charm, touches of deep emotion, and a dizzying tarantella finale.
