On the Waterfront: Symphonic Suite

Mozart’s final symphony is a grand construction of epic proportions. From its heroic opening, pensive and liquid middle movements to the legendary ‘fugue’ of the finale, the Symphony is a magical display of compositional genius that transports the listener with an astounding display of driving power, mellow relaxation and a profusion of enchanting melodies.

Haydn’s ever popular Trumpet Concerto and Dokshizer’s arrangement of Gershwin’s ‘Rhapsody in Blue’ will astonish you with the virtuosic talent and skill of our soloist, Tristram Williams.

Despite its title, the Symphonic Suite from ‘On the Waterfront’ is a beautifully integrated single movement work with a score that seethes with dramatic tension.
