Ehnes plays Elgar
Ehnes plays Elgar
Friday, May 7—Sunday, May 9, 2027
James Ehnes is a beloved figure on the DSO stage. His intimate, personal approach connects with audiences, and he finds deep richness in Elgar’s expansive Violin Concerto. Conductor Domingo Hindoyan seeks playfulness in Dvořák’s music, and this performance of the Seventh Symphony will balance fire, lyricism, and lightness. A program infused with the Romantic spirit. | Join us for a pre-concert talk 1 hour before most performances.
Pre-concert Talk
Join us one hour prior to most classical performances for a 30-minute pre-concert talk. Pre-concert talks are an opportunity for conductors, musicians, and other experts to share more about the music and enhance your connection to the evening's program. You will get a glimpse into the composer's inspiration, the story behind a work, what to look for in a soloist's performance, and more! With a deeper understanding of the music, your symphony experience will be more engaging and even more memorable. Please note, our pre-concert talks are scheduled for every PVS Classical Series performance, except Friday morning Coffee Concerts.
Insider tip: Seating for pre-concert talks is general admission in Orchestra Hall. Try out a different seat or section from your ticket for a new perspective.
