This program is like postcards from Italy, starting with Tchaikovsky’s Capriccio Italien, inspired by a trip the composer took to Rome during Carnival.
The program’s centerpiece is Tchaikovsky’s fiery Violin Concerto—from the shimmering opening theme to the breathless pyrotechnics of the finale, it is sure to be a marvel in the hands of violinist Sergej Krylov. After a sightseeing trip, Mendelssohn composed his vivid Italian Symphony, about which he said, “It will be the most joyous thing I’ve ever written.”
