Julia Perry A Short Piece for Orchestra
Korngold Violin Concerto
Dvořák Symphony No7
Christian Reif Conductor
Philippe Quint Violin
You never quite know where music is going to take you. Erich Korngold was born in old Vienna but ended up in Hollywood, and his gorgeous Violin Concerto embraces both worlds. Dvořák got the idea for his Seventh Symphony at a Prague railway station, but it grew into one of his most personal (and dramatic) masterpieces. And in Black History Month, conductor Christian Reif celebrates a neglected classic by the American composer Julia Perry: you’ll wonder why we don’t hear it more often.
