Remembering 1968: A Tribute to MLK Jr. is comprised of pieces that honor the legacy of a man who was fearless in his charge to fight the injustices of the world.

SUMMARY:Brahms Requiem\, Barber Adagio
DESCRIPTION:Join the Richmond Symphony and Richmond Symphony Chorus\, with Music Director Steven Smith\, in commemorating the 100th year anniversary of Armistice 1918. This memorable Altria Masterworks program features Brahms’ Ein Deutsches Requiem\, Op. 45\, Barber’s Adagio for Strings and Butterworth’s The Banks of Green Willow.  \nThe dark\, unusually low registers lend an air of reverence and contemplation to Brahm’s Requiem.  In the words of Clara Schumann\, “It is a truly tremendous piece of art which moves the entire being in a way little else does.” \nBarber’s Adagio for Strings is a serious piece of music that is firmly embedded in the consciousness of nearly every American. Composer William Schumann gives a wonderfully concise listening guide: “[Adagio for Strings] is so precise emotionally. It begins\, it reaches its climax\, it makes its point\, and it goes away.” \nGeorge Butterworth wrote his The Banks of Green Willow before World War I even started\, but it is seen as emblematic of the “lost generation” from that war\, and is often played to commemorate it. \nProgram Notes \nLearn more about Steven Smith\, conductor. \nLearn more about Darren K.

SUMMARY:Beethoven's Emperor & Mahler 5
DESCRIPTION:Join the Richmond Symphony and guest artist Orion Weiss on piano\, for a breathtaking evening of musical excellence. This Altria Masterworks concert features Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 5 Opus 73 “Emperor\,” as well as the epic masterpiece that is Mahler’s Symphony No. 5 in C-Sharp Minor. \nBeethoven wrote this concerto while Vienna was under siege by Napoleon’s armies. “What a disturbing\, wild life all around me\,” Beethoven wrote to his publisher\, “nothing but drums\, cannons\, men\, misery of all sorts.” The piece has a wide dynamic range that opens with a striking first movement\, settles into a serene hymn-like adagio\, and moves through to a triumphant rondo finale. \nWhen Gustav Mahler conducted the first performance of his Fifth Symphony in 1904\, it was described as “the giant symphony\,” due to the immense demands placed on the orchestra. The first movement is a sort of funeral march. It begins with a single trumpet announcing the main theme. The entire orchestra eventually takes up this theme\, building to a powerful climax before yielding to a more lyrical\, plaintive melody. Eventually\, the lighthearted waltz crashes its way back in and struggles with the darker theme\, prevailing triumphantly at the end. The piece moves from sorrow to joy through epic swells of orchestral participation. \nOrion Weiss is one of the most sought-after soloists in his generation of young American musicians.His deeply felt and exceptionally crafted performances go far beyond his technical mastery and have won him worldwide acclaim. \nLearn more about Orion Weiss\, Piano.\nLearn more about Steven Smith\, Conductor. \nProgram Notes \n  \n  \nSeries Sponsor \nConcert Sponsor \nMedia Sponsor \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
