Overview
Guest conductor Robert Trevino leads an all-orchestral program of works by Wagner, Bartok, and Rachmaninoff. Wagner’s transcendent Prelude and Liebestod from Tristan und Isolde opens the concert. Bartok’s Suite from The Miraculous Mandarin tells a dark tale of treachery and desire. And Rachmaninoff’s melodic genius is on full display in his Second Symphony, unforgettable both for its energy and its poignancy.
