Acclaimed violist and well-known string teacher in the western suburbs, Rose Armbrust Griffin, is the featured soloist in the DSO’s February concert, performing the rarely-heard but gloriously tuneful Viola Concerto by Cecil Forsyth. The concert is framed by two compelling masterworks: Johannes Brahms’ Tragic Overture, imbued with powerful melancholy, and Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 6 in B minor, commonly known as Pathétique but more aptly designated as the “Passionate.” This exquisitely poignant symphony was Tchaikovsky’s final work in the genre, premiered just nine days before his death.
