HAYDN Symphony No. 45 in F-sharp minor, “Farewell”
Join us as the RPO streams its concert into your homes! Written in 1878, Dvorak’s Serenade for Winds in D minor evokes the aristocratic atmosphere of music performed in the courts of the Ancien Régime. The first African-American to win the Pulitzer Prize, George Walker’s Lyric for Strings blends lush harmonies with stark solo passages to create a dramatic and moving composition. Haydn’s Symphony No. 45 “Farewell” concludes the program.
