Join Seattle’s newest orchestra for their inaugural performance! Witness the clash of musical titans through their riveting program, “War of the Romantics,” which explores the profound schism of the late-Romantic era between conservative composers championing absolute music and their diametrically opposed programmatic pioneering peers. Experience enchanting melodies, thunderous drama, and rich Germanic harmonies as these warring forces shape the course of musical evolution and artistic expression.
