Listeners attending these Memphis Symphony Orchestra concerts can expect two different experiences. The "Magic of Memphis" program appears to be a community or pops-style event, likely drawing on popular or locally themed music rather than a strict classical program. The May 2027 concerts center on Grieg's Piano Concerto in A minor, a work known for its dramatic opening piano flourish and lyrical, folk-inflected melodies, paired with Dvořák's Symphony No. 7, a darker, more turbulent symphony than his more famous later works, built on tightly woven thematic development. Under Dickson's baton, audiences can expect the orchestra to navigate the concerto's balance between soloist and ensemble, followed by the symphony's shifting moods from stormy outer movements to a warmer slow movement.
