The Evening Concert

On the program, the "5th Symphony" by Prokofiev, "5 Fragments" by Shostakovich, and other 20th Century works.

The program features two complete violin concertos: Mozart's 3rd and Shostakovich's 1st and a quantity of smaller pieces and excerpts for violin.

Wolfgang's "3rd Violin Concerto", Camille's "5th Piano Concerto" and more, including Sunday's “From the Stage at Krannert Center: Song and Poetry with Nathan and Julie Gunn and the Jupiter String Quartet”.

Preceding Marc Blitzstein...there'll be chamber music by Finnish composers.

Music tonight by Franck, Chausson, Prokofiev, and Julian Anderson.

Mahler's "Das Klagende Lied" is less often heard because of the forces required to perform it: vocal soloists, chorus and orchestra. 

Let's thank Felix Mendelssohn and Joseph Joachim for presenting Beethoven's "Violin Concerto" in 1844 following decades where it wasn't played at all...so we could have it today.

Plus, Rachmaninoff's "Isle of the Dead" and Corigliano's "One Sweet Morning"...from Shanghai

"The Isle of the Dead", the "Violin Concerto in D", and the "7th Symphony" among other works by the composers mentioned above.

Tonight it's later-career chamber music by Mozart, the Wind Serenade, K.388 and the Piano Quintet, K. 478, and "Mack the Knife on Broadway".
