A concert of contrasts that opens with the delicate medieval music of Hildegard von Bingen and the gentle ebbs and flows of Caroline Shaw’s Entr’acte. Haydn’s Symphony is a whirlwind, while Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto encompasses sweetness, melancholy and drama—with a bit of cheekiness too. The concert ends with a beginning: the delightful overture to A Midsummer Night’s Dream, sending you home with a smile on your face.
