Go For Baroque: Bruch & Mendelssohn

May 24–26

Go for Baroque! Handel’s popular Concerto Grosso sparkles and seduces and Gluck’s dreamy “Dance” is one of the most renowned pieces of its time. The audacious soloist Stefan Jackiw (“Talent that’s off the scales” – Washington Post) dazzles in the Bruch.

Sibelius & Tchaikovsky

May 31–Jun 2

David Coucheron performs Sibelius’s Violin Concerto – one of the most heartfelt of violin concertos and a fitting exclamation point to Magnus Lindberg’s gem that ironically was written for a Sibelius conducting competition. The Tchaikovsky is a gripping symphonic journey.

John Adams: A Flowering Tree

Jun 7–9

An ancient south Indian folktale comes to life with the Theater of a Concert premiere of A Flowering Tree! Famed American composer John Adams’s newest opera follows the story of a young, impoverished girl — with the ability to transform into a flowering tree — who learns true love and wisdom are often gained only through sacrifice and trial. With a captivating storyline and luminous score, A Flowering Tree is “alive with innocence and magic” (The New York Times) and is a season-ending performance not to be missed!
