Overview

Thrilling audiences with her technical brilliance and passionate, committed performances, AMFS alumna Alisa Weilerstein is the cello superstar of her generation. Hear her in Dvořák’s ravishing Cello Concerto, regarded as one of the greatest of all concertos full of quickly shifting moods, and quieter, reflective moments.

The program opens with William Grant Still’s Darker America, his first orchestral work. The composer intended the piece to represent “the triumph of African-Americans over their sorrows through fervent prayer.” Another work memorializing spiritual triumph concludes the concert. Prokofiev composed his 5th Symphony in 1944 and wrote that it was “a hymn to free and happy Man, to his mighty powers, and his pure and noble spirit.”

Be inspired by this stirring concert and the consummate artistry of Alisa Weilerstein!
