Myth, Magic, and Mozart

Conducted by Daniel Wiley

Myth, Magic, and Mozart ties together composers who draw on legacy, legend, and tradition to craft music that feels both timeless and deeply personal. The program includes Richard Wagner’s Siegfried Idyll, an intimate, symphonic love letter, William Grant Still’s Danzas de Panama, channeling the spirit and heritage of Afro-Caribbean culture in a work that feels both timeless and resonant, Joseph Bologne’s Symphony No. 1 in G Major, capturing the elegance and brilliance of the Classical era, and concludes with Mozart’s Flute Concerto No. 2 in D Major, performed by Henrik Heide, Associate Principal Flute of the Cincinnati Symphony, showcasing luminous virtuosity and effortless grace.
