American conductor James Feddeck begins with two deeply evocative works from across the Atlantic. After John Harbison鈥檚 nostalgic, bittersweet foxtrot back into the world of The Great Gatsby, Samuel Barber鈥檚 Violin Concerto alternates passages of tender lyricism with sections of quite astounding virtuosity, tackled here by exceptional Canadian violinist James Ehnes. The second half of tonight鈥檚 concert comes from Russia with love: Rachmaninov鈥檚 immense, intense Second Symphony, soaked in passion and brimming with unforgettably romantic melodies.
