Summers at Severance: Dvořák’s Sixth Symphony
Cleveland Orchestra conducted by Petr Popelka - Severance Music Center, Mandel Concert Hall
Program Info: The Cleveland Orchestra Petr Popelka, conductor James Ehnes, violin
“A work capable of great things” is how Dvořák described his Sixth Symphony in 1880. The prediction proved correct, launching the composer to international stardom. Czech conductor Petr Popelka contrasts this folk-inflected symphony with Franck’s Le Chasseur maudit, an orchestral thrill ride that depicts a count’s fateful hunt on the Sabbath. Acclaimed violinist James Ehnes caps the program with Korngold’s Violin Concerto, which brings the sounds of Hollywood film scores into the concert hall.
