Mozart And Schumann Scenes From The Rhine – Powell Hall, Saint Louis

About this event

This St. Louis Symphony Orchestra production celebrates a variety of European folk music, taking audiences on a musical journey from Estonia to the German Rhineland. The concert marks the SLSO debut of Estonian conductor Kristiina Poska, who brings a diverse program blending contemporary Baltic compositions with classical and romantic German masterpieces. The Friday morning iteration of the concert is presented as part of the SLSO's Coffee Concert Series, supported by EverTrue, which provides a more relaxed daytime atmosphere complete with complimentary refreshments from local vendors. The production emphasizes the thematic connections between the pieces, moving from modern rhythmic explorations to classical playfulness, and culminating in a grand romantic tribute to the Rhine River.
