Symphony-in-60: Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2

Short on time, but need a classical music fix? The Oregon Symphony has the perfect answer for the end of your work week: a brand-new musical experience called “Symphony in 60.” The concert is shorter, and there’s no intermission, but there’s no shortage of dazzling music. Our first entry is Rachmaninoff’s ultra-Romantic Symphony No. 2 that enfolds you with sweeping melodies, lush orchestrations, and inspired lyrical passages. The composer himself said: “Music is born only of the heart and it appeals to the heart. It is love.” You’ll need no further proof than this gorgeous work.

David Danzmayr Jean Vollum Music Director
