WHAT MAKES IT GREAT?
Hosted by Rob Kapilow and featuring violinist Ariel Horowitz and the Manhattan School of Music Sinfonia

How did this revolutionary masterpiece become mainstream concert fare? Can we rehear this celebrated concerto today as the astonishingly radical piece it once was?
Tickets go on sale in July.
