From Romantic composers to contemporary musicians, Baroque music remains an inexhaustible source of inspiration. With the help of German countertenor Nils Wanderer, Clemens Schuldt has designed a program as unexpected as it is inspiring. Beyond the irresistible theme of its first movement, Brahms's fourth and final symphony synthesizes the composer's entire musical legacy.

This year, too, the Sicilian Symphony Orchestra will celebrate Christmas with its audience through a special event. The program offers a fascinating and rich musical journey through the universal soundtrack of this important Christian holiday. The concert opens with Leroy Anderson's rousing " Sleigh Ride" (1946), renowned for his descriptive use of percussion, evoking the sound of horses trotting and the cracking of whips on the snow. Later, the same composer will perform " A Christmas Festival ," a rhapsodic overture that interweaves the most famous traditional carols. A profound sense of intimacy and nostalgia emanates from the pieces created during the dramatic years of the Second World War. This is the case of White Christmas , composed by Irving Berlin in 1940 and performed for the first time the following year during the program The Kraft Music Hall , and of I'll Be Home for Christmas  (1943) by Walter Kent, whose lyrics feature a soldier stationed abroad who writes to his family. This trend is joined by the poignant sweetness of Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas  by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane, originally introduced by Judy Garland in the famous musical film Meet Me in St. Louis  (1944).
