On Saturday, June 8, conductor Gábor Takács-Nagy joined the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra for a stunning season finale. Alban Berg’s Violin Concerto, performed by concertmaster Steven Copes, invited the listeners to feel love, loss and hope, being dedicated “to the memory of an angel.” Then, audience members were drawn in by the power and vivacity of Ludwig van Beethoven’s Eroica Symphony — an epic close to the orchestra’s 65th season. Listen to the concert now!
