The Soul Within: Tchaikovsky’s Sixth

March 1, 2026 4:00 pm Newmark Theatre

Tchaikovsky turns the gaze inward, crafting a symphony that is raw, emotional, and deeply human. This is the giant’s burden: to feel deeply, and to express the inexpressible.

  • World premiere of a piece by student composer James Lee, as part of The Authentic Voice commissioning series in partnership with Fear No Music’s Young Composers Project.
  • Flute Concerto in D major, Op. 283, mvt. 1 by Carl Reinecke

      MYS Concerto Competition Winner (winds/percussion/piano category)
