Carlos Simon won’t take things lying down. His electrifying "Wake Up!," a concerto for orchestra, pulls us forward in our seats, ready for what lies ahead. Johannes Brahms’s virtuosic Violin Concerto offers a lifetime of discovery for the searching mind of soloist Augustin Hadelich. Opening the program is Weber’s witty, catchy "Invitation to the Dance." Music Director Jader Bignamini conducts.
