Music Director Gianandrea Noseda makes his long-awaited return to the Concert Hall! Tune in on Facebook and witness NSO musicians perform a program featuring the First Symphony by Joseph Bologne, the first known classical composer of African ancestry. Born the son of an enslaved woman and white plantation owner, Bologne was a violin virtuoso and famed fencer who rose to stardom in Paris during the French Revolution. The concert also includes Sibelius’s heart-wrenching Valse triste and Mozart’s Symphony No. 40.
