The Classix Series: Elgar Cello Concerto

The Reno Philharmonic, The Classix Series: Elgar Cello Concerto
Event Description: 

From the depths of longing to the heights of euphoria, the Reno Phil and guest conductor Nicholas Hersh embark on a stirring pursuit of peace, where every note seeks solace, strength, and triumph.

The journey begins with Grażyna Bacewicz’s Overture, a dazzling burst of orchestral brilliance that crackles with energy. She broke new ground as she continued writing music while war threatened to destroy her country. Davidson Fellow Zlatomir Fung takes center stage for Elgar's Cello Concerto, a soul-baring masterpiece that speaks in whispers and echoes in eternity. Beethoven's Symphony No. 7 brings the evening to a jubilant close, its relentless rhythms and soaring melodies sweeping us toward a finale that dances with unshakable joy.
