Brahms Violin Concerto 

Written for his friend and mentor Joseph Joachim, the soaring Violin Concerto represents Brahms at his brightest and is a cornerstone of the Romantic repertoire. Virtuoso Abigél Králik, a veteran of Forbes’ “30 Under 30” list, will invigorate this timeless classic with a fresh and youthful perspective. The piece is paired with Paul Hindemith’s probing and powerful symphony Mathis der Maler, a proving ground for material for his opera on the life of Renaissance painter Matthias Grünewald.
