The winner of this package will receive four Box Tier tickets for Cabrera Conducts Bruckner on May 27, 2017 from The Las Vegas Philharmonic in Reynolds Hall at The Smith Center.

THEATRICS AND DARING abound in this hearty program featuring an overture from Wolfgang Amadeus’ last opera, Richard Strauss’ only concerto for Oboe and Anton Bruckner’s awe-inspiring sixth symphony. The Magic Flute Overture opens the performance with dramatic flair. Rising star, Liam Boisset will make his debut playing Richard Strauss’ autumnal, Oboe Concerto, famously inspired by conversations between the aging composer and a young U.S. soldier, an oboist, at the end of WWII. The evening concludes with Anton Bruckner’s magisterial Symphony No. 6, one of the only symphonies that remained unchanged by the composer. This glorious symphony is a poignant way to finish our 18th season – the 1899 premiere was conducted by none other than Gustav Mahler, who was in the midst of composing his Symphony No. 4 at the same time!
