Monumental symphonies
Schumann’s first symphony is brimming with romantic-era lushness – a lyrical jubilance that captures the excitement and anticipation of Spring after a long, dark Winter. Brahms’ Fourth Symphony has become one of this master’s most legendary works and classical music’s greatest masterpieces – a powerful final symphonic statement that is a treat to experience live.
This concert is made possible in part by the Houston Endowment, the Brown Foundation, the Cullen Trust for the Performing Arts, the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance, and by supporters like you.
