“New Beginnings” – combines the sounds of “fate” with some of the most beautiful melodies ever written! WSO opens with Liszt’s magnificent tone poem Les Preludes after an Ode from Alphonse de Lamartine.

And if you love gorgeous melodies, sweeping harmonies, and virtuosity, you are in for a treat with Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No. 2. Jose Mendez, the acclaimed Spanish pianist, will solo.

Save the best for last! That’s what we plan with Beethoven’s  Symphony No. 5! Experience one of Beethoven’s most intense orchestral works famous for its “fate” motif and glorious ending.
