Brahms and Dvorak (3 p.m.)

The great strength and nobility of Brahms’ Fourth and final Symphony places it among his most profound achievements. Valentina Peleggi conducts, and the Richmond Symphony’s own Neal Cary plays Dvořák’s elegy for a long-lost love, the impassioned Cello Concerto, composed during the composer’s American sojourn. To begin, a colorful new work, commissioned by the Richmond Symphony from Jasmine Guo. A composer for cinema as well as the concert stage, her distinguished works have been honored and acclaimed.
