It is the composer's masterpiece of intrigue and betrayal, of obsession and deception.   For her first opera with the Richmond Symphony, Valentina Peleggi conducts Puccini's Tosca.  Starring the wildly acclaimed Jennifer Rowley in the title role.  “Rowley molded her fiery passion to suit Tosca’s changing mood,” reported Operawire, “using it at one moment to warm and in the next to burn…”

Earworms, by Canada’s Vivian Fung, is a lighthearted mashup of music’s most memorable melodies, even daring to respond to Charles Ives’ “Unanswered Question.”  Michael Sachs is one of classical’s foremost trumpet masters and jazz trumpet master Wynton Marsalis composed his Trumpet Concerto expressly for him.  The two styles meet in a mesmerizing fusion.  Schumann’s Second Symphony can be heard as the symphonic bridge across the Romantic age.  Influenced by Beethoven and Schubert, it would come to influence Johannes Brahms.

"It will never please the public," said Tchaikovsky of his Fifth Symphony.  Yet its beautiful melodies have captivated for over a century.  Valentina Peleggi conducts Tchaikovsky's passionate Fifth Symphony, plus a newly commissioned work by Conni Ellisor, music that speaks directly to the heart with her Nashville country soulfulness.   And powerful violinist Inmo Yang plays Jennifer Higdon’s Pulitzer Prize-winning Violin Concerto and Massenet’s famous Meditation. The Chicago Tribune raves: “His bow work and the accuracy of his intonation were much to be admired…”

“The symphony must embrace the world,” said Gustav Mahler.  And in his tender Symphony Number Four, he reveals his world through the innocent eyes of a child. Valentina Peleggi conducts Mahler’s heart-rending Fourth Symphony, and the first of Mozart’s miraculous final set of symphonies, the ebullient “Haffner.”   Plus, a new work by Richmond’s own Joe Jaxon, who’s bright, joyful sounds will enliven the program.

Sergei Rachmaninoff declared, "I try to make my music speak simply and directly that which is in my heart."  Stewart Goodyear plays Rachmaninoff’s ravishing Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.  Critics say he “provides an adrenaline pulsing dose of excitement”.   Plus, a rare moment of Beethoven at peace.  Every measure of the poetic “Pastoral” Symphony animates his impressions of country life.  And the swirling energy of Anna Clyne’s Masquerade sets in motion this concert of popular classics

A spectacular showpiece.  A fantastic symphony. Experience the hallucinations of Hector Berlioz.  Guest conductor Michael Repper leads the “Symphonie Fantastique”, Berlioz’s vivid masterpiece.  The concert begins with the tympani thunderclap of Antropolis by Gabriela Ortiz.  Her driving rhythms evoke the seduction of a smokey Mexico City café.   And the Richmond Symphony Chorus is featured in Borodin’s “Polovtsian Dances” (the tune for “Stranger in Paradise”.)
