Brahms’ Third

This dynamic program, featuring works by Berlioz, Brahms, and Clarice Assad, blends intensity and expression. Berlioz’s King Lear Overture makes its HSO debut, capturing the play’s power struggles with dramatic orchestration. Assad takes the stage as soloist in her own FLOW, Concerto for Piano, offering a unique composer-performer perspective.

Brahms’ Symphony No. 3 follows, a masterpiece of lyrical depth and compact intensity. To ensure a rousing conclusion, the concert flows directly into Brahms’ Hungarian Dance No. 5, adding a lively, rhythmic finale.

From Berlioz’s bold drama to Assad’s innovative energy and Brahms’ sweeping melodies, Brahms’ Third delivers a compelling and vibrant musical experience.
