Overview
John Williams and Rachmaninoff's Second Symphony
Nashville Symphony | Rune Bergmann, conductor | Bradford Marsalis, saxophone
Branford Marsalis, of the Marsalis jazz family dynasty, takes a solo turn in master-of-melodies John Williams’ saxophone concerto—largely based on his score from the 2002 film Catch Me If You Can. Guest conductor Rune Bergmann begins with Tambor, a work the orchestra has recorded with Joan Tower, and culminates with Rachmaninoff’s sweepingly romantic Second Symphony.
