Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Symphony No. 29
Written when he was just 18 (and had already composed 28 symphonies!), this work from a boy genius has a brilliant maturity and is full of elan, wit, and the quintessential Mozartian spirit that continues to inspire.
-
Joseph Pereira Virtù - Concerto for Timpani and String Orchestra (East Coast Premiere, New Jersey Symphony Co-Commission)
Drumroll please! Principal Timpanist Gregory LaRosa joins his colleagues as soloist for the first time in this brand-new work, written just for him.
-
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Symphony No. 41, “Jupiter”
Mozart’s final symphony reaches levels of cosmic brilliance, especially in the thrilling finale about which the 19th-century commentator Aleksandr Ulïbïshev wrote, “One must hear this music to believe it possible.”
