Dvorak鈥檚 New World Symphony

The 大象传媒 Philharmonic Orchestra performs Bruch鈥檚 First Violin Concerto, with Jennifer Pike on violin, and Dvorak鈥檚 New World Symphony, a journey of musical discovery around America.

The 大象传媒 Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Ben Gernon perform Bruch鈥檚 First Violin Concerto and Dvorak鈥檚 Symphony No 9, 'From the New World'.

Bruch鈥檚 romantic violin concerto is performed by Jennifer Pike, who first gained attention in 2002, when at 12 years old, she won the 大象传媒 Young Musician competition. She is now in demand as a soloist around the world.

Dvorak wrote his Ninth Symphony on a journey of musical discovery around America. It takes inspiration from both native and African-American melodies, and is a cinematic display of orchestral colour that captures the spirit of new discovery.
