Past Event: The Music of Poland

Despite being a friend and contemporary of Shostakovich, Mieczysław Weinberg and his musical genius went unrecognized for much of the 20th century due to Soviet-Era suppression. This concert highlights three of Weinberg’s more than 150 works: a playful flute concerto, a concertino for violin and string orchestra, and a dramatic chamber symphony. 

This concert is generously supported by Evelyn and Stephen Block, Raulee Marcus, and Abby Sher.
