The first concert of the SSO’s 53rd season features Dvorak’s Eighth Symphony. Deeply moving and full of tunes, this masterpiece may be the greatest symphony you don’t know. Each section of the orchestra has a chance to shine; thrilling brass (wait to you hear what Dvorak has the horns do in the last movement!), woodwinds in ravishing counterpoint, heartbreakingly beautiful strings. But wait, there’s more! This is the evening to come if you love beautiful tunes and great orchestration. Also on the program are Rimsky-Korsakov’s Capriccio Espagnol, a brilliant tour de force with the feel of Spain and Delius’ Walk to the Paradise Garden, a moody and sublime tone poem from his only opera.
