About the event

Embark on a musical odyssey with GRAMMY Award-winning conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the Curtis Symphony Orchestra. In this enchanting afternoon, delight in groundbreaking works by luminaries Samuel Coleridge-Taylor and Florence Price, harmoniously paired with Antonín Dvořák’s pastoral Symphony No. 8.

Experience the emotional depths of Coleridge-Taylor’s lively, rhapsodic, unabashedly Romantic work—a milestone for the prolific 22-year-old composer. Price’s Symphony No. 1 follows, a historic marvel seamlessly blending classical idioms with African American spirituals and blues. Conclude the performance with Dvořák’s Symphony No. 8, a sun-dappled masterpiece radiating joyous optimism, evoking the Bohemian countryside’s rolling green hills and rustic folk melodies.
