Montgomery: Banner
Mozart: Sinfonia Concertante (American Premiere)
Barber: Adagio for Strings
Haydn: Symphony No. 104 in D major “London”

Samuel Barber’s beloved Adagio for Strings expresses tragedy and pain, resolving in peaceful rest. Haydn’s last and greatest symphony and Montgomery’s Banner will inspire. The American premiere of a newly completed work of Mozart rounds out this elegant classical program.
