Brahms Third Symphony

Artists

Alexandra Dariescu, piano

Program
MAYER – Faust Overature
JAMES LEE III – Shades of Unbroken Dreams, Concerto for Piano and Orchestra (co-commissioned by the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra; Florida premiere)
BRAHMS – Symphony No. 3

Conductor Mei-Ann Chen, praised for her passionate conducting style, leads the Orchestra in the Florida premiere of the new concerto for piano and orchestra, Shades of Unbroken Dreams, by Orlando favorite James Lee III. Bookending the Concerto is Emilie Mayer’s Overture, whose Romantic vocabulary explores Faust’s searching, questing soul and leads into the beautiful conclusion of our concert, Brahms’s Third, often called his most personal symphony. “Like a rainbow after a thunderstorm,” as the composer’s biographer Karl Geiringer describes it, with an emotional palette that paints in colors of yearning, reflection, and serene acceptance.
