It’s time for us to all use music in the way we need most, so… Let’s celebrate the return of the BSO to the stage where it awaits its audience. Let’s celebrate our young people returning to school with Brahms’ famous Academic Festival Overture. Let’s fête BSO principal horn Rebecca Jyrkas as she steps to the front of the stage to play the music of Richard Strauss. After the intermission, we’ll feature a young violinist, Vladimir Tsiper, performing the final movement of one of the violin’s most beloved concertos. Finally, we’ll encounter a mystery, a sweet lullaby, the magic of the Firebird, and a wedding scene that tops them all with music by Stravinsky. Let’s celebrate!
