The Berliner Philharmoniker returns to Hill Auditorium the weekend before Thanksgiving for two concerts. The first of two concerts highlights Korngold’s heart-tugging violin concerto, Rachmaninoff’s first orchestral masterpiece, Isle of the Dead, and Dvořák’s dramatic Symphony No. 7, which the London journal Athenaeum declared at its 1885 premiere “not only entirely worthy of his reputation, but one of the greatest works of its class produced in the present generation.”

World-renowned violinist Hilary Hahn, originally scheduled to perform, will be unable to appear due to unforeseen health circumstances. UMS is delighted to present the exceptional violinist Benjamin Beilman as her replacement for this highly anticipated performance.

In an effort to mitigate traffic congestion following the U-M football game, this performance will also now begin at 8:00 pm (previously slated to begin at 7:30 pm).


PROGRAM
Sergei Rachmaninoff Isle of the Dead, Op. 29
Erich Korngold Violin Concerto in D Major, Op. 35
Antonín Dvořák Symphony No. 7 in d minor, Op. 70
