Step into the passionate world of Romantic-era music with the San Juan Symphony’s Musically Speaking: Romantic Giants. This engaging lecture with Maestro Heuser explores the stories, musical ideas, and larger-than-life emotions behind two masterpieces of the orchestral repertoire: Antonín Dvořák’s beloved Cello Concerto and Johannes Brahms’ powerful Symphony No. 3.

Learn more about these two towering composers, the expressive worlds they created, and the fascinating connections between their music before hearing these masterpieces performed live by the San Juan Symphony and cellist Tommy Mesa.

Whether you’re a longtime classical music fan or new to orchestral music, Musically Speaking offers an accessible and entertaining way to listen deeper and experience the concert from a whole new perspective.
