Dvořák: Symphony No. 9, ‘From the New World’
Praised for her evocative lyricism and joyful, genuine approach, guest violinist Aubree Oliverson masterfully performs Samuel Barber’s Violin Concerto.
There are few pieces in the repertoire that have inspired audiences like Dvořák’s Symphony No. 9. Deeply rooted in American folk traditions, Dvořák composed the grand work while living in New York, taking inspiration from the sights and sounds of "The New World."
