Virtuoso Violinist Livia Sohn Showcased in
Masterworks IV: Song and Dance - Barber and Beethoven
Saturday, February 6 at 8:00 p.m. & Sunday, February 7 at 2:00 p.m.
Virtuoso violinist Livia Sohn shines in Barber's quintessentially American and lyrical concerto - the music will embrace you! Then the QCSO dances the night away to Beethoven's Symphony #7. This is Beethoven at his best...high energy and delightful. The night opens with Grieg's Holberg Suite featuring only the string section. It's a gorgeous yet sweet opening to MWIV.
