Beloved Festival Orchestra member Conrad Jones moves from the brass section to the front of the stage to perform Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto, one of the finest concertos ever written for the instrument, and the only one Haydn ever wrote. In contrast to Haydn’s singular piece are two works by important 20th century icons – a playful literary overture by American Samuel Barber, The School for Scandal Overture, and an incredibly precocious college graduation project by Dmitri Shostakovich, his Symphony No. 1.

Program:
Barber: The School for Scandal Overture
Haydn: Trumpet Concerto
Shostakovich: Symphony No. 1

Sir Donald Runnicles, conductor
Conrad Jones, trumpet
