Dmitri Shostakovich — Violin Concerto No. 1 in A minor, Op. 77 (Leonidas Kavakos, violin)
George Walker — Sinfonia No. 1
Ottorino Respighi — Roman Festivals

Violinist Leonidas Kavakos joins the Orchestra and conductor Gianandrea Noseda in Shostakovich's contemplative and fiery Violin Concerto No. 1. Drama and mystery pervade Walker's pithy Sinfonia No. 1. Respighi's tone poem Roman Festivals depicts ancient and modern celebrations in Rome, from gladiatorial combat to the tolls of church bells and a harvest festival.

This program runs May 4-6.
