About

The beguiling New York native, James Gaffigan, returns to conduct Dvořák's intensely expressive Seventh Symphony. The program opens with Street Song by Michael Tilson Thomas, and is followed by scenes from the American countryside in William Grant Still's tuneful and nostalgic Wood Notes.

Midori lit up the stage last night as she joined the ASO and guest conductor Juanjo Mena for Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto. Writing for the The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Jon Ross notes: “Midori’s playing combines an assured technique with a rich sonority that seems like it would be impossible to maintain even at the uppermost limits of the violin’s register.” You have two more chances to hear this program: Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 3pm.
