The St. Louis Symphony Orchestra announced it will travel to four European cities, Berlin, Switzerland, Paris and London in September, 2012.
Supported by loyal subscribers, an innovative Music Director, accomplished musicians, prudent management and a committed Board, the Orchestra is one of few in the country that is in the black. The expenses of the four-day tour will be paid for by dedicated funds raised through the effort of the Orchestra's former chairman of the Board, Virginia Weldon, and Monsanto Co., and other anonymous donors.
At a recent concert of the Orchestra I heard Tchaikovsky
Symphony No. 4 in F minor, Op. 36 and Sibelius En saga, op.36. The music carried with it magnificent images of desire, failings, sadness and joy. Music talks to us about human experience in a universally understood language which is in itself another Gateway to overcoming differences.
