SCHUMANN Cello Concerto
STRAUSS Eine Alpensinfonie [An Alpine Symphony]
Richard Strauss’ Alpine Symphony summons an orchestra of well over 100 musicians to depict the majesty of nature in spellbinding relief. Through rocky summits, waterfalls, a hunting party, a violent storm and a triumphal return, Strauss unleashes the full potential of symphonic writing in his final tone poem, elevating the artistry of the form to soaring heights. Conducted by New World Symphony artistic director Stéphane Denève and featuring cellist Pablo Ferrández in his Cleveland Orchestra and Miami debut.
