Ukrainian violinist Valeriy Sokolov makes his Minnesota Orchestra debut, performing Samuel Barber’s enchanting Violin Concerto. Composed in 1939, this celebrated concerto starts out with two lyrical and melodic movements and comes to a close with a final virtuosic movement, performed at break-neck speed and ending with an explosion of masterful intensity. American conductor Thomas Wilkins returns to Orchestra Hall to conduct this sweeping and breathtakingly cinematic program of music by 20th century American composers.
