Northwest Symphony Orchestra: Season Finale

The April 26th concert is the Season Finale of Northwest Symphony Orchestra's season. The concert will begin with Shostakovich's Festive Overture, which was written over a 3-day period in 1954 in commemoration of the 37th anniversary of the October Revolution. The performance will also feature soprano Alexandra Picard, performing a selection of arias by Brahms, Mahler, Puccini, and Huntley Beyer, and the orchestra will cap off the 2013-2014 season with Symphony No. 3 by Johannes Brahms.

"We conclude our season with Soprano soloist Alexandra Picard, an NWSO audience favorite, singing some famous arias. Some of these are on a CD that the NWSO recently recorded with Alexandra and this concert is a release party of that CD- Alexandra will sign copies at intermission and after the concert. We also open with Shostakovich's exciting Festive Overture, and conclude the concert with the most romantic of Brahms Symphonies- his Symphony #3."
