Express Concert: Schubert’s “The Great C Major” Symphony with Richard Egarr 

About

SPCO Artistic Partner Richard
Egarr returns to escort us on a musical journey that contrasts darkness and
light. The overture to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s beloved opera, The Magic
Flute, calls upon the power of truth, love and beauty to conquer the darkness
while The Unanswered Question, Charles Ives’ riddle-like work, features
a contemplative trumpet solo asking the “eternal question.” The Great Major
C, Franz Schubert’s monumental symphony begins reverently before being
enriched with many moments of ecstatic joy. Fans of brass will love this
fanfare-filled program!
