Program Notes & Works
Forward Into Light
Sarah Kirkland Snider’s colorful and energetic Forward Into Light includes a quote from Dame Ethel Smyth’s “March of the Women,” a suffragette anthem from the 1910s.
Violin Concerto No. 2
Symphony No. 7 in D minor, Opus 70
Since it was only the second of his symphonies to appear in print, it was published as “No. 2.” But the manuscript described the work as Dvořák’s “6th Symphony”—and it was actually his seventh!
