What's Interesting
Richard Strauss conducted Death and Transfiguration at Music Hall in 1904. More than a century later, Louis Langrée and the CSO once again bring Strauss’ vivid musical image of the infinite to Music Hall. The program features Elizabeth Freimuth, the CSO’s Principal Horn, and an expansive world premiere by ascendant American composer Samuel Adams.
What Critics Are Saying:
"Orchestral soloists performed wonderfully, notably principal horn Elizabeth Freimuth.”
—Cincinnati Business Courier
"Adams writes with a propulsive energy that is alternately gritty and soft-edged"
—The San Francisco Chronicle
