The program will feature Tchaikovsky's passionate and electrifying Symphony No. 4, Mozart's sublime Overture to the Magic Flute and Dvorak's endearing Violin Concerto featuring violinist Anna Lee. "It is a thrill to collaborate with the Massapequa Philharmonic and Anna Lee on the orchestra's opening concert," says guest conductor David Bernard. "Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 4 scales human emotion from the depths of loneliness and longing up through triumphant elation. One minute the work tugs at your heart strings and then next sends you to the highest heights with a celebration of blinding brilliance. And Anna Lee will enrapture the audience with her artistry in the Dvorak Violin Concerto. It is an honor to share this great music with the people of Massapequa."
