Concert I
The Miracle
Sunday, October 26, 2025 at 3PM
Empress Theatre
CPE Bach, Symphony in D minor
Britten, Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings
Salvatore Atti (tenor)
Jesse Clevenger (French horn)
WORLD PREMIERE John Williams, Serenade for Horn and Strings
Stravinsky, Dunbarton Oaks
Haydn, Symphony No. 96 The Miracle
This program sparkles with invention and contrast: the stormy brilliance of C.P.E. Bach, the crystalline craftsmanship of Stravinsky, Britten's haunting Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings, and John Williams' Serenade for Horn and Strings. Mr. Williams (E.T. and Star Wars) was a family friend of Jesse Clevenger's and wrote this piece in memory of Jesse's mother after she passed
away in 2011.
We're thrilled to feature two radiant artists--tenor Salvatore Atti and horn player Jesse Clevenger--whose poetic sensitivity and luminous sound will bring Britten's nocturnal vision vividly to life. Haydn's "Miracle" Symphony closes the program with trademark wit and charm.
