Brahms, Copland And Barber

Violinist Ning Kam makes her debut with the Tucson Symphony Orchestra performing Barber's Violin Concerto. The program will also include Copland's Our Town and conclude with Brahms's Symphony No. 1.
Ning Kam was a second place prize winner at the Queen Elisabeth Competition of Belgium in 2001. Ning released her first CD in 1997. Critics have used phrases like "energetic and virtuosic," "stunning" and "fiendish" to describe her playing.
The program opens with the quintessential American Sound of Copland's Oscar-nominated 1941 film score, Our Town, a contrast with the rich, passion-filled and soulful sounds of Barber's Violin Concerto, and closes with the soaring crescendos of Brahms's 1st Symphony.
