SUMMARY:Goodyear's Serenade for Strings
DESCRIPTION:The rhythmic precision that Artist in Residence Stewart Goodyear brings to his playing is also at the core of his compositions. His Serenade for Strings serves as a fitting complement to Julia Perry’s Prelude for Strings. Perry’s 1946 meditation offers a sonorous solace to the soul\, providing a moment of introspection and beauty. The concerts conclude with the remarkable First Symphony by Felix Mendelssohn\, composed when he was just 15 years old\, showcasing the precocious brilliance of his youthful talent.

Valentina Peleggi conducts Tchaikovsky’s passionate Fifth Symphony\, plus a newly commissioned work by Conni Ellisor\, music that speaks directly to the heart with her Nashville country soulfulness. And powerful violinist Inmo Yang plays Jennifer Higdon’s Pulitzer Prize-winning Violin Concerto and Massenet’s famous Meditation. The Chicago Tribune raves: “His bow work and the accuracy of his intonation were much to be admired…”
