Mozart: Overture to The Abduction from the Seraglio
Noah Bendix-Balgley: Fidl-Fantazye: A Klezmer Concerto
Mahler: Symphony No. 1, “Titan”

Under Michael Francis, this program goes from light and playful to truly epic. Mozart’s Overture to The Abduction from the Seraglio kicks things off with sparkle and mischief. Violinist Noah Bendix-Balgley steps in with his own Fidl-Fantazye: A Klezmer Concerto — part solo, part storytelling. Rooted in the klezmer tradition, the violin does it all: laugh, cry, bend, wail and absolutely soar. Then comes Mahler’s Symphony No. 1, the “Titan.” It begins almost in a whisper — nature waking up — and grows into something huge and unforgettable. There’s innocence, irony, grief and finally a blaze of triumph
