BSO Classical Saturdays: Landscapes November 10, 2007

A musical journey, no luggage or passport required. Eminent conductor Gunther Herbig leads Mendelssohn's 'Hebrides,' conjuring an island seascape off the coast of Scotland. It's followed by one of the finest concertos in the repertory, Sibelius' passionate Violin Concerto with Concertmaster Jonathan Carney, evoking the icy shimmer of the Finnish countryside. The evening closes with a celestial powerhouse, Schubert's Symphony No. 9 in C Major, inspired by the beauty of the Austrian landscape.
