The Elgin Symphony Orchestra continues its 76th Season Classics Series with a program of elegance, joy, and lyrical beauty on Saturday, Nov. 8, at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, Nov. 9, at 2:30 p.m. at The Hemmens Cultural Center.

Led by ESO Music Director Chad Goodman, the concert features works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Clara Schumann, and Felix Mendelssohn.

Hornist Greg Flint is featured in Mozart’s charming Horn Concerto No. 4, one of the composer’s most beloved solo works, in a program that also includes Mozart’s youthful Symphony No. 13, according to a news release.

The second half of the concert pairs works by Clara Schumann and a composer of great influence to her. Schumann’s poetic “Three Romances” (in an orchestration by Benjamin de Murashkin) is followed by Felix Mendelssohn’s exuberant Symphony No. 4, also known as the “Italian” Symphony.

Flint is Principal Horn of the Elgin Symphony Orchestra and a regular performer with many of the Midwest’s leading ensembles. He also serves on the faculty of Northern Illinois University, where he is an associate professor of horn.

A pre-concert talk by ESO Music Director Chad Goodman will take place one-hour prior to each concert.
