Denève: Symphonie Fantastique

On Saturday, April 19, the New World Symphony presents Symphonie Fantastique, conducted by Artistic Director Stéphane Denève. The program opens with John Williams’ Grammy-winning Suite from The Book Thief, followed by the renowned cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason performing Shostakovich’s challenging Cello Concerto No. 1. The evening culminates with Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique, a dramatic and vivid musical journey through passionate love and surreal dreams. Expect a compelling blend of cinematic and classical music. This highly anticipated concert is expected to sell out.
