The concert begins in Australia with Percy Grainger’s Children’s March. The subtitle Over the Hills and Far Away is an ambiguous location where the composer is destined to find his sweetheart. Grainger then takes us to the county of Lincolnshire, on the east coast of England. In Lincolnshire, in the early 1900′s, Grainger recorded folksingers and assembled his iconic collection Lincolnshire Posy. After intermission, Morton Gould reminds us that the only place a soldier wants to be is home. His American Salute is a clever twist on the American Civil War song When Johnny Comes Marching Home. Gould then transports us to the biblical town of Jericho where we can actually hear the walls "come tumblin’ down."

Mozart Symphony No. 35 in D Major, K. 385 “Haffner” 

Bruckner Symphony No. 4 in E-flat Major, WAB 104 “Romantic” 

The PSO’s 28th season opens with two Austrian composers who were both considered masters of harmony. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Symphony No. 35 in D Major, K. 385, “Haffner”, is a celebratory piece written in honor of the Mozart’s friend, Sigmund Haffner, a wealthy Salzburg merchant, upon the occasion of his elevation to nobility. The work opens triumphantly with a brightness and exuberance that tells us it was intended to be performed outdoors and is the epitome of the classical style. Anton Bruckner was, for most of his composing life, relatively unknown but is now recognized for raising the symphonic form to new heights. His Symphony No. 4 in E-flat Major, WAB 104, “Romantic,” reflects the composer’s dramatic use of brass and genius for harmonic and melodic invention.
