Music Director Emeritus for Life Riccardo Muti returns with an all-time orchestral favorite: Dvořák’s New World Symphony. Its glorious melodies capture the folk songs and spirituals the composer heard in America, dosed with a heartfelt longing for his Czech homeland. Composed in 1939, Hindemith’s majestic Mathis der Maler portrays an eminent Renaissance artist’s struggles against political repression.
