Heyward Conducts Brahms
Jonathon Heyward, conductor
Joshua Roman, cello
ELGAR Froissart
JAMES LEE III Cello Concerto (world premiere, BSO commission)
BRAHMS Symphony No. 1
A keen student of history, Brahms took 14 painstaking years to mount his First Symphony atop the shoulders of his hero, Beethoven. Now, Music Director Jonathon Heyward puts his own stamp on this essential pillar of the orchestral repertoire. In a commission from BSO Composer in Residence James Lee III, a new Cello Concerto features the talents of Joshua Roman, whose electrifying interpretations of solo repertoire draw from his creative perspective as a composer and improviser. An early overture by England’s Edward Elgar depicts a storied account of battles and royal intrigue from the 1300s.
