Immerse yourself in an evening of Bohemian melodies, crowned by Antonin Dvořák’s beloved Cello Concerto as performed by cellist, David Calhoun. This masterpiece is both exhilarating and profound and pushes the instrument’s boundaries to deliver some of Dvroak’s most soulful, heart-achingly beautiful music you’ll ever experience. Before his departure to the “new world,” Dvorák composed his life-affirming Eighth Symphony. The Eighth inhabits a sunny, pastoral world filled with Bohemian folk melodies, rustic peasant dances, distant horn calls, and echoes of the birdsongs of the forest. It’s an enchanting world of exuberant celebration and quiet, lamenting nostalgia. Rounding out the concert, is the Southeastern U.S. Premiere of Dan Perttu’s Nimue and her Fairies, an enchanting tone poem inspired by the stories of King Arthur and the fairy-like enchantress, Nimue.
