Maestro Heatherington brings you Schubert and Mendelssohn with the Lake Forest Symphony and the Chicago Master Singers! | |
is always Schubert's "Unfinished" symphony, one of those works that cannot be played or heard often enough. But the real gem on this extraordinary concert is Mendelssohn's Lobgesang, a work that has not been heard in Chicago since a Ravinia performance led by Ricardo Chailly years ago. This astonishing work deserves a place alongside Elijah as one of the greatest choral/orchestral works of the entire 19th century. Don't miss an opportunity to hear it with the Lake Forest Symphony, Maestro Heatherington, brilliant soloists and the Chicago Master Singers!
