Masterworks I

Eroica kicks off the 25/26 Masterworks Season in Capitol Theater, encapsulating the timeless beauty of classical music. We welcome guest violinist Lun Li to perform Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto in E Minor, whose captivating performance will infuse the stage with emotional depth and brilliance. The evening begins with Rautavaara’s Suite for Strings, a work filled with lush textures and evocative melodies and concludes with Beethoven’s groundbreaking Symphony No. 3 in E-flat Major ‘Eroica’. With its sweeping energy and bold sound, the Eroica Symphony celebrates the triumph of the human spirit.
