Coronado Theatre 7:00 pm

Nancy Galbraith: Festive Violet Pulse
Dvorák: Violin Concerto
Schubert: Symphony No. 9

Considered much too difficult to play and never performed in his lifetime, Schubert’s majestic Symphony No. 9, dubbed “the Great,” is acclaimed as one of the masterpieces of all time.

The piece was discovered after Schubert’s death by his colleague Robert Schumann and soon after conducted by Felix Mendelssohn. Violinist Eva León, who has become one of the most successful Spanish violinists of her generation, will captivate the audience with Dvorák’s lively and festive tour de force.

Program Notes

CD Recommendations

“(Eva Leon’s) tone is warm, sonorous and pure, with a large range of colors which she controls with bow and vibrato and applies with a painter’s skill and imagination.”
- New York Concert Review
(2006, Carnegie Hall Debut)
