Strings of Love

Program

Go on a date with your Calgary Phil and hear glorious music inspired by that most powerful of human passions: love. Gustav Mahler's tender Adagietto is a musical love letter to his wife Alma, and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet Overture endures as one of classical music's most famous love tunes. Reinhold Glière's dreamy concerto features the Phil's Principal Harp, Emily Melendes.
