Jennifer Higdon’s 2010 Pulitzer-prize winning violin concerto will feature the CSO’s concertmaster, Holly Mulcahy. The work is lyrical and fast-paced and created to showcase the soloist’s great manual dexterity. Counter to that work is Tchaikovsky’s final completed symphony, a pathos-laden piece that deals with the power of fate in life and death.
