The effervescent overture to Smetana’s most well-known opera opens this concert in style. Brahms’ violin concerto is built on a symphonic scale, to the point where the original version had the four movements traditional for that form. Brahms replaced the middle two with one of his most beautiful adagios, and the finale is a vigorous Hungarian dance. Dvorˇák’s most famous symphony, written in America while filled with longing for his Czech homeland, has an apparently inexhaustible flow of melodies, with a justly famous slow movement at its heart.
