Pre-concert lecture at 7:15. Christopher James Lees, conductor. The orchestra\&##39;s final program of the semester combines two much beloved works with as strikingly different characters as possible: the cheerfully comedic La gazza ladra overture of Rossini & the tumultuous but ultimately triumphant Symphony no. 5 "Reformation" by Felix Mendelssohn. PROGRAM: Rossini - Overture to La gazza ladra; Respighi - Fountains of Rome; Mendelssohn - Symphony no. 5 "Reformation"
