Program

  1. Samuel Barber Violin Concerto, Op. 14
  2. Sergei Prokofiev Symphony No. 6 in E flat minor, Op. 111

Running time: about 1 h 25 min including an intermission (estimate from the works' usual timings)

Worth the drive: Barber's 1939 Violin Concerto pairs lyrical, singing melodies in its first two movements with a breathless, moto perpetuo finale, and remains one of the most-performed 20th-century American violin concertos. More about Samuel Barber's Violin Concerto, Op. 14 →
