About this event
Under the direction of Music Director Emeritus for Life Riccardo Muti, Dvořák’s Eighth Symphony unfolds its gorgeous melodies — a consummate tribute to the bucolic landscapes and folk dances of the composer’s native Bohemia. Echoes of nature also pulse through Bartók’s Two Pictures, while Strauss’ Oboe Concerto — an autumnal, nostalgic piece composed in the aftermath of World War II — features Principal Oboe William Welter.
