Madison Symphony Orchestra Orchestral Masters Season Premier

John DeMain has chosen three expressive masterworks to inaugurate his 20th Anniversary Season, from the simple gifts of Copland's Appalachian Spring Suite to the majesty of Wagner's Tristan und Isolde and the exotic beauty of Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade. Listen to the music online! For years now, audience members have been asking DeMain to present the Symphony in an all-orchestral program, so that we can enjoy the fruits of his tenure and experience what John W. Barker described for Isthmus: "...a performance of overwhelming passion, sweep and power...the MSO played like a big league orchestra."
