Join us at Weatherwax Hall as Swedish Chamber Orchestra concertmaster Clara Saitkoulov joins us to play one of the most famous violin concertos by Felix Mendelssohn. The program will begin with a work by Felix’s sister Fanny – a talented composer in her own right whose work is only now gaining the attention it deserves. The evening will conclude with Mendelssohn’s well-known Symphony No. 3 – The Scottish Symphony – a nod towards spring and youth.
