Due to ongoing complications from COVID, Pamela Frank has regrettably withdrawn from her performance of Mozart's Sinfonia concertante. We are fortunate that violinist Leonidas Kavakos has been able to adjust his Tanglewood schedule and step in to perform the Mozart.

Program Notes & Works
Shanty – Over the Sea
Shanty is written for the musicians of the orchestras who play it.
Sinfonia concertante for violin and viola, K.364m
The Sinfonia concertante for violin and viola stands out as one of Mozart’s most seductively rich works and surely as the finest of his string concertos.
The Planets
Gustav Holst’s rich, characterful suite The Planets is based on the composer’s impressions of the astrological “personalities” of the celestial bodies. From the pounding aggression of Mars to the romantic lyricism of Venus, The Planets spans an astonishing range of moods.
