DVOŘÁK & BERNSTEIN
Emotional conflict is at the heart of this moving program, although it’s tempered by the presence of Kodály’s lighthearted, late-Romantic Serenade. Bernstein’s Halil—which the composer said speaks to a sense of war-based or war-feared “struggle” and to “the consolations of art, love, and the hope for peace”—opens the program, while Dvořák’s tumultuous F-minor Piano Trio—a work that an influential critic at the time said demonstrated that the composer was “at the pinnacle of his career”—brings the evening to a dramatic close.
