Join us for our season opener of romantic power and poetic finesse as the orchestra presents two masterworks from the 19th century: Mahler’s Symphony No. 1 “Titan” and Mendelssohn’s beloved Violin Concerto, featuring violin soloist, Timothy Schwarz.
Mendelssohn’s Violin concerto offers the listener a seamless blend of emotional depth and technical brilliance. A favorite among audiences and violinists alike, it continues to captivate with its elegance. Often nicknamed the “Titan,” Mahler's symphony traces an extraordinary emotional journey — from nature’s awakening in the opening movement to a triumphant, blazing finale. Drawing on folk tunes, funeral marches, and expansive orchestration, Mahler crafts a sound world both personal and universal, filled with drama, wonder, passion, and sheer power.
