Jonathon Heyward, conductor
Julia Bullock, soprano
DVOŘÁK Carnival Overture
JESSIE MONTGOMERY Five Freedom Songs
MAHLER Symphony No. 4
Jessie Montgomery, in collaboration with soprano Julia Bullock, drew from a 19th-century anthology of spirituals to create a work that articulates a powerful expression of their shared experience as Black Americans. Bullock returns for Mahler’s Symphony No. 4, with Music Director Jonathon Heyward steering the BSO through this dreamy score all the way to its heavenly, melodious finale. Dvořák's concert overture is a joyous, exuberant celebration of life, transporting the listener into the wild clamor of a carnival at nightfall.
