Dvořák's Cello Concerto
This marks the beginning of a two-week residency for Edo de Waart with the Orchestra. He served as its music director from 1986-95, and whenever he returns to conduct he re-ignites the chemistry that made those years such an artistic high-water mark. This week, the focus is on the beloved Cello Concerto by Antonin Dvorak, featuring the Orchestra's principal cellist, Anthony Ross. Next week, an all-Wagner program with the pre-eminent Wagnerian soprano today, Jane Eaglen.
