Brahms' Symphony No. 1 is one of the most riveting and profoundly emotional symphonies ever written. This beautiful work anchors our March concert, introduced by the rollicking Slavonic Dances that established Dvorak as a leading composer and the rousing overture to Rossini's opera Semiramide. Brandon Sheppard of Lockport, the winner of our 65th annual solo competition for high school musicians, will also perform Weber's Concerto No. 1 for Clarinet.
