Music of the Nations

Date TIme
Thursday, Apr. 14 8:00 PM

Two works inspired by new, exciting places.

Telemann wrote his Suite “Les Nations” with movements dedicated to the Turks, the Swiss, the Muscovites, and the Portuguese. Dvorak’s journey to America is evident in this string quartet that recalls his famous New World Symphony – but this is another work entirely. Hear it brought to life by the full string section of Mercury.  

Program to include: 

TELEMANN: Suite “Les Nations” 
DVORAK: “American” String Quartet

Antoine Plante, conducting
