About this Performance

Nicholas Hersh, conductor
Tai Murray, violin

Music Director Hersh has put together a wonderfully exciting and energetic program for our April Classics concert. This program opens with “the Tango King” Piazzolla’s Tangazo, followed by Louise Farrenc’s lyrical and spirited Symphony No. 3. Then we will explore J. S. Bach’s “Little Fugue” in G minor with an arrangement by Hersh himself. We’ll close out the evening with Mendelssohn’s uplifting and energetic Violin Concerto in E minor featuring Tai Murray. This concerto remains among the world’s most prominent and highly regarded violin concertos in history.
