Dubuque Symphony Orchestra: Classics 3: Symphonic Landscapes

Artists / Performers

Event Details

Former DSO Concertmaster and current Chicago Lyric Opera violinist Eleanor Bartsch makes a highly anticipated return to perform one of the most beloved works in the American violin repertoire: Samuel Barber's Violin Concerto. The concerto unfolds like a panoramic landscape - in a vivid musical journey through the heart of American expression: expansive, bold, and profoundly moving. Members of the Dubuque Symphony Youth Orchestra join the DSO in a special side-by-side performance of Jean Sibelius' Finlandia. From its brooding, windswept opening to its soaring climaxes and moments of hushed introspection, Sibelius' Symphony No. 1. paints an evocative soundscape - both intimate and epic - a perfect finish for a concert rooted in musical connection and powerful storytelling. - Saturday evening concert attendance includes entry to post-concert Encore Reception. Enjoy complimentary refreshments and visit with DSO musicians.
