Experience all the expressive capabilities of the bassoon — athletic agility, touching tenderness, and virtuosic velocity — as the Orchestra’s Principal Bassoon Antoine St-Onge shows them off in Carl Maria Von Weber’s theatrical concerto. Grammy Award–winning conductor Karen Kamensek demonstrates her expansive artistry in William Walton’s Symphony No. 1 — a work of searing intensity inspired by his fiery love affair with Baroness Imma Doernberg.
