Charles Dutoit, Conductor
HIGHLIGHT
“Dawn on the Moscow River” was the prelude to Mussorgsky’s unfinished Khovanshchina, while Tchaikovsky’s masterful Violin Concerto was completed by Lake Geneva, and Rachmaninoff penned his Symphony No.3 while in America. The patriotic fervor of all three composers—despite different circumstances toward the end of their lives—is palpable.
