Symphony No. 10 in E minor, Op 93

Approved

The BSO and Andris Nelsons return for their second Prom of the season to perform Haydn’s Symphony No. 90, Barber’s Essay No. 2 and Shostakovich’s 10th Symphony.

Returning for a second appearance this summer, Andris Nelsons and the Boston Symphony Orchestra bring a piece of America with them in Barber’s Essay No. 2 – a symphony in miniature, moving from lyrical loveliness through contrapuntal conflict to end with a radiant chorale. They pair it with Haydn’s Symphony No. 90, where ebullient mischief and dignity vie for supremacy in sunny C major. Joy gives way to high drama, however, in Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 10 – a vivid portrait of Stalinist Russia.
