Masur Conducts Brahms by Kernis, Brahms, sam. 07 juin 2025, Du (2025/2025), Chef d'orchestre Ken-David Masur, Bradley Symphony Center, Milwaukee, États-Unis

The MSO’s own principal cellist Susan Babini performs an unforgettable concerto by Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Aaron Jay Kernis, whose expansive and haunting solo cello concerto Colored Field was inspired by a visit to a former WWII concentration camp. Later, Music Director Ken-David Masur conducts Brahms’ First Symphony, whose brilliance helped the composer step out of Beethoven’s shadow; critic Eduard Hanslick said of Brahms’s First that '...even the layman will immediately recognize it as one of the most distinctive and magnificent works of the symphonic literature.'
