Live Music

Artistic inspiration and passion shine as Brahms’ Third Symphony is paired with modern-day composer Detlev Glanert’s response to the work in this musical dialogue of a concert. The Third Symphony, one of Brahms’ most personal compositions, has been described by music critic Eduard Hanslick as “artistically the most nearly perfect” of the composer’s collection. Multi-Grammy Award-winning violinist James Ehnes joins the conversation, returning to St. Louis to share his rendition of Bruch’s impassioned Violin Concerto No. 1.
