WATTS PLAYS BRAHMS
Schumann’s third symphony was inspired by a visit to the Rhine region, known for its fine scenery—and its bottled delights. Brahms’ second piano concerto likewise brings hearty German flavor; closer to home, Cone’s Music for Strings was written for New Jersey’s Tercentenary Festival of Music in 1964. |

BEETHOVEN 3 & 5
Jacques Lacombe leads Beethoven’s heroic third and fateful fifth symphonies—two of classical music’s most recognizable works. A new work by New Jersey’s own George Walker is the perfect appetizer. |
