Tchaikovsky Symphony No. 4
Under the baton of Guest Conductor Brett Mitchell, the Pensacola Symphony Orchestra will perform Tchaikovsky’s towering Fourth Symphony. From its opening horn calls signaling inescapable fate to its rambunctious conclusion featuring a flurry of cymbal crashes and orchestral fireworks, it serves as a “faithful echo” of an intensely emotional journey. The program also features Mason Bates’ Garages of the Valley about the Silicon Valley spaces that housed the visionaries behind Apple, Hewlett Packard, Intel, and Google, and Camille Saint-Saëns’ First Cello Concerto with Principal Cellist of The Cleveland Orchestra Mark Kosower as soloist.
