Giancarlo Guerrero, conductor | Jennifer Koh, violin

Tania León: Stride
Samuel Barber: Violin Concerto
Edward Elgar: Enigma Variations

Hailed by NPR as “one of the most brilliant artists of her generation,” Jennifer Koh joins Giancarlo Guerrero for Barber’s exquisite Violin Concerto. Tania León’s Pulitzer Prize-winning Stride, reflecting her Cuban American heritage, was part of a project celebrating the 19th Amendment. Anchoring the program is a repertoire staple, the Enigma Variations, a musical portrait gallery of the composer’s friends with an autobiographical look at himself.
