It can be exciting when someone of international renown is a special guest, and this concert has that kind of buzz...the Greenville Symphony welcomes violinist Benjamin Beilman to this concert, and the gifted performer plays Johannes Brahms' Violin Concerto in D. Also on the program are Richard Wagner's Prelude to Die Meistersinger and the Symphony No. 7 in d-minor by Antonin Dvořák. Be sure to be with us for this much-awaited "return."
A single monumental work fills this edition of Carolina Live. It's Johann Sebastian Bach's Mass in B-minor, which gave new form to the vocal music that Bach had composed throughout his career. The performance is by the Charleston Symphony Orchestra, the Taylor Festival Choir and the College of Charleston Madrigal Singers, so join us for this special concert.
The title of the concert featured here is Favorite Love Songs, and the special guests of the Greensboro Symphony Orchestra have created a long-running musical love story... Jaime Laredo and Sharon Robinson are a husband-wife team who are known worldwide as soloists, a duo, and as part of a famous trio. The concert features Vivaldi's Concerto for Two Violins and Cello, Chris Brubeck's Pas De Deux-Concerto for Violin, Cello, and Orchestra and Sergei Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet Suite. Enjoy the "love songs" with us!
