The Opening Night of our Classics Series promises an unparalleled musical journey, beginning with the mystical allure of Stravinsky’s The Firebird Suite. The evening escalates to a celebration of virtuosity and innovation with the world premiere of City of Light by Daron Hagen, specially commissioned to commemorate JoAnn Falletta’s remarkable 25-year tenure with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. The spotlight shines on Joshua Bell, one of the most celebrated violinists of our time, as he returns to enchant with Wieniawski’s Violin Concerto No. 2, performed on his legendary 300-year-old Stradivarius. This concert is not just a performance but a landmark event celebrating music, history, and the continued legacy of excellence at the BPO.
