Cheerful and evocative, powerful and meditative, this concert conjures up true symphonic spirit with two repertoire staples! After an orchestral opener by VIS’ own Keon Birney, Steinway artist Lorraine Min joins us for Rachmaninov’s ground-breaking concerto. The program concludes with Dvořák’s sunny, optimistic, lyrical “Eighth”.
