Brahms: Symphony No. 2
Brahms and Tchaikovsky, two greats of of the Romantic era, are featured in the BSO’s March 2016 Masterworks concert. Tchaikovsky’s Variations on a Rococo Theme will feature the cello pyrotechnics of Inbal Segev, before Maestro Richman explore Brahms’ sublime second symphony. A charming piece for chamber orchestra will shed new light on Stravinsky at the start of the program.
“…cellist Inbal Segev matched him with her thrillingly projected, vibrato-rich playing (not to mention a beautifully judged range of color and dynamics).”
