Geneva Plays Brahms
December 6, 7 & 8 Brahms’ fiery Violin Concerto, with its sweeping melodies and emotional depth, comes to life through the artistry of returning guest violinist Geneva Lewis. Jimmy López’s Aino is a stirring tone poem of defiance and tragedy, while Strauss’ Suite from Der Rosenkavalier and Leoncavallo’s Intermezzo from Pagliacci are steeped in operatic beauty—all inspired by love, sacrifice, and youthful vitality.
