MasterWorks 4: Scottish Fantasy
Guest Artist: Rachel Barton Pine, Violin
Berlioz: King Lear Overture
Bruch: Scottish Fantasy
Dvořák: Symphony No. 8
One of the world’s preeminent violinists, Rachel Barton Pine is heralded by The Washington Post as “an exciting, boundary-defying performer - Pine displays a power and confidence that puts her in the top echelon.” With Pine’s stunning technique and lustrous tone, she will perform Bruch’s passionate Scottish Fantasy, a popular piece based on Scottish fiddle tunes. Conductor Timothy Muffitt leads the LSO through two other expressive works, Berlioz’s lesser known King Lear Overture and Dvořák’s bucolic and powerful Eighth Symphony.
