Description
Join the Lake Forest Civic Orchestra for our Sunday concert series at Gorton Center. Music’s ability to tell a story has inspired generations of composers. In his famous orchestral work Les Préludes, Franz Liszt portrays an unnamed central character as a musical theme. Through varying changes and treatments of this theme, Lizst tells the story of the ups and downs, triumphs and turmoil, and occasional serenity experienced throughout this character’s life. Tchaikovsky expands on this idea in his powerful and dramatic Fifth Symphony.
Violinist Ruth Kim, a student at Stevenson High School, will join the LFCO to perform the first movement of Prokofiev’s Violin Concerto No. 1.
Our Program:
Liszt - Les Préludes
Prokofiev - Violin Concerto No.1 , Mvt. 1
Tchaikovsky - Symphony No. 5
