There is no better time of year to catch the spirit of music than when John DeMain captures the essence of the budding season with Schumann's Spring Symphony. Joining him is Grammy Award-winner Augustin Hadelich in a scintillating performance of the Dvořák Violin Concerto, long overdue for a hearing at these concerts. Opening the concert is Britten’s strikingly powerful Sinfonia da Requiem. Student rush tickets are available for $12-$18 at the Overture Center’s Box Office on the day of the concert, and a free 30-minute talk by music experts starts one hour before the concert.
