About the Music

Following her performances as Amelia in Verdi's Simon Boccanegra, Barbara Frittoli returns to sing very different music: a Mozart concert aria as well as a dramatic scene from his first operatic masterpiece, Idomeneo, King of Crete. Also on the program is the fourth world premiere of this season, eminent American musician Gunther Schuller's orchestrally kaleidoscopic, symphony-like Where the Word Ends, a BSO 125th anniversary commission. Brahms's wonderfully warm Symphony No. 2 closes the program.
