Rochester Symphony Orchestra

The show-stopping energy of Glinka, Borodin, and Rimsky-Korsakov set the stage for the sheer delight of melody and drama in this program featuring the distinct sound of Russian Romantic composers. Rochester Symphony audience favorite, Andrew Staupe, returns to the stage to perform Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2, a monumental work of passion and emotion.

The Last Romantics

Mayo Civic Center

Our season concludes with music that inspires peace and hope in times of upheaval and uncertainty. The tranquility of the English countryside in The Banks of Green Willow, Silvestrov's serene and meditative prayer for Peace in Ukraine, and the sacred a cappella choruses of The Peaceable Kingdom lead us to Haydn's powerful and climactic choral work. Widely acknowledged as a call for peace, the jubilant finale reflects strength and hope.
