Verizon HallBeyond the Score – Tchaikovsky’s Fourth

The most shattering personal crisis of Tchaikovsky's life--his ill-conceived marriage to a young student in 1877--coincided with one of the greatest periods of his composing career. Over a mere two years, he poured out a stream of masterpieces, culminating in his Fourth Symphony, a 19th-century Russian music drama to rival the great literary dramas of Pushkin and Tolstoy. The young Russian knew he had achieved something extraordinary, calling his symphony "better than anything I've done so far."

Beyond The Score program bring insight for newcomers and seasoned concertgoers alike. The first half of each of these programs offers a theatrical examination of the selected score-exploring the context, history, and details of a composer’s life that influenced their creation, sharing illuminated stories found inside the music. After intermission, everyone will return to the hall to hear the work performed in its entirety.
