In this program, conductor Pieter-Jelle de Boer weaves a fascinating musical path. Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's relatively little-known Symphony in D major is a dazzling work, a harbinger of Romanticism.

In 1791, the last year of his life, Mozart delivered a major piece of music history. How can we resist the Clarinet Concerto, with its slow movement that opens the door to infinity, especially when it is performed by clarinettist Shirley Brill?

In addition to Schubert's Symphony No. 5, a marvel of elegance, transparency and grace, the program includes a fabulous contemporary work.
