Schumann // Symphony No. 2 in C Major
Under Marin Alsop’s baton, Stravinsky’s dazzling Firebird concludes with one of the most exalted finales in all of music. Gershwin’s Concerto in F is a blend of traditional classical forms and the freedom of American jazz. After a year without writing music, Schumann expresses his triumph over darkness in his incredibly personal Second Symphony.
