Join us for an unforgettable evening of classical music as we present a program featuring some of the most celebrated works of the classical era. From the dynamic rhythms of Arriaga’s Overture in D and the dramatic intensity of Gluck’s Overture to Orpheus and Eurydice, to the lyrical beauty of Chevalier de Saint-Georges’ Violin Concerto in A and the thrilling percussion of Haydn’s Symphony No. 103 in E-flat, “The Drumroll,” this concert showcases the rich and varied tapestry of the classical symphonic tradition. Experience the energy, passion, and emotional depth of these timeless works as performed by the Maryland Symphony Orchestra, and discover the enduring power of classical music to move and inspire us.

Drum Roll, Please!

The Maryland Theatre

The Basque composer Arriaga was a child prodigy, dubbed 'the Spanish Mozart' at the time, who composed a number of accomplished quartets and symphonies before his untimely death at only 19 years old. This dramatic overture is the first piece he published.

Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment

The Anvil

Founded in 1997 in Madrid, Cuarteto Casals regularly performs in the world’s most prestigious concert halls since winning First Prizes at the London and Brahms-Hamburg competitions. We begin with a quartet by Spanish Basque child prodigy Arriaga, revealing a unique sound modeled after Hadyn and Mozart. Next we hear an exciting work commissioned in 2024 from Spanish-American composer Elisenda Fábregas, The evening ends with Schubert’s harmonically innovative and final quartet, widely considered his greatest and most challenging.
