R.J. Kelley is "dazzling!" - San Francisco Chronicle
The season's opening concert is devoted to works by Mozart and Haydn with links to specific cities: Mozart's "Prague" Symphony, composed in 1786 as a gift to the city that, more than any other city, loved him; and Haydn's Symphony No. 98, one of his so-called "London" symphonies, composed on his first trip there in 1792.
The program also includes a "new" work by Mozart, a reconstruction (by Robert Levin) of his Concerto for Horn and Orchestra in E-flat major, performed by Philharmonia Baroque principal horn R.J. Kelley, using fragments from the first movement, as well as a recently-discovered score for the last movement.
