The Unanwered Question is Ives' musical attempt to probe the questions of "Who are we? What is the meaning of life?" This is contrasted by the youthful exuberance of Mozart's Symphony No. 29, and closes with the sheer force of Saint-Saëns' "Organ" Symphony, capped off with a mightly fanfare.

Do you want to enrich your concert experience? Come early to hear WETA 90.9 FM's David Ginder's insightful and witty commentary on the evening's concert program. The 40-minute pre-concert lectures feature music clips and surpise appearances by BSO musicians and guest artists. Music Notes LIVE! begins at 7 pm in the Music Center at Strathmore. The program is free to all ticket holders. No reservations are required but capacity is limited, so patrons will be admitted on a first-come, first-served basis.
