Rococo to Romance
Our 76th season opens with a musical journey from ‘Rococo to Romance’. Tchaikovsky’s Rococo Variations is a spectacular piece performed by Karen Becker, cellist.
We move from the ornamental and elegant period to the emotions and dramatic expression of the romance period with Salieri’s Falstaff Overture, Faure’s Elegie and Schubert’s Symphony no. 8, the famous ‘unfinished’ symphony, which we will complete with the Entracte 3 & 1 from Rosemunde.
