Ives's The Unanswered Question opens the program with a haunting meditation on existence, as searching strings and restless winds drift through an eternal mystery. Prokofiev's bold and electrifying Piano Concerto No. 3 follows with virtuosic brilliance and biting wit. Finally, Schumann's Symphony No. 2 rises from darkness into triumph -- a testament to resilience, overflowing with soaring melodies and unshakable spirit. 
 
NOTE: Resident Conductor Christopher James Lees will replace Music Director Kwamé Ryan as conductor for the Sunday, February 1 performance.
