"Seldom has enlightenment proved so entertaining." - Chicago Tribune
Weaving together historical narrative with live actors, visual illustrations and musical examples played by John DeMain and the the Madison Symphony Orchestra, Beyond the Score guides the audience through Dvo?ák's masterpiece, engaging the imagination and the ear. The first half of this program explores the world of the composer at the time he composed his Symphony No. 9 (From the New World). The second half is a full performance of the work.
Beyond the Score is produced by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
