Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel: Overture in C major
Robert Schumann: Konzertstück for Four Horns
Felix Mendelssohn: The Hebrides – Overture
Franz Schubert: Symphony No. 3
This concert spotlights outstanding musicians from the National Symphony Orchestra in one of Schumann’s unique works: the Konzertstück for Four Horns. No matter which instrument family is your favorite, you’ll delight in this bubbly, beautiful masterwork—the horn-playing equivalent of running a four-minute mile!
How else can we finish such a lively program than with Schubert’s Symphony No. 3? An amazing achievement from a composer still in his teens, Schubert’s Third is infectiously fun with sunny D major charm, touches of deep emotion, and a dizzying tarantella finale.
