Dvorák – Symphony No. 7

Featuring
Lina González-Granados, conductor | Bomsori Kim, violin

Colombian-American conductor Lina González-Granados, the incoming resident conductor of Los Angeles Opera, makes her Sarasota debut in a program of swirling musical color. Radiance flashes emerge from a gentle and mysterious sound world in Nina Shekhar’s Lumina, 2021 winner of ASCAP’s Rudolf Nissim Prize. Bruch’s Violin Concerto takes you on a wild ride through soulful melodies and explosive bursts of passion. South Korean violinist Bomsori Kim—one of the most “dynamic and exciting violinists of today” (Germany’s NDR radio)—tackles Bruch’s challenging composition. Dvorák’s Symphony No. 7 travels from sadness to triumphant joy, concluding this colorful program.
