Glière: Concerto for Horn and Orchestra in B flat major, Op. 91 / Radek Baborak

You will want to be present as we highlight one of our own—principal horn, Richard Britsch—who will take the limelight for Glière’s Horn Concerto with YOUR Grand Rapids Symphony. Considered the most important work for horn of the 20th Century, you will be mesmerized by the beautiful melodies and colorful orchestration. The program opens with Grażyna Bacewicz's Overture—an energizing work that was written in 1943, during World War II. Its bold melodies, driving rhythms, and expressive orchestration evoke hope and resilience in the face of adversity. The evening will close with Prokofiev’s last symphony—written when the composer was 61 years old.
