Xian Zhang explores one of Mozart's most gripping and dramatic symphonies, often recognized by audiences as the opening music for the Academy Award-winning film Amadeus. Mozart's Overture to Don Giovanni perfectly sets the scene for all the operas drama, deception and damnation. Bruckner's glorious Te Deum was a high point for the composer, who called this joyful choral work the pride of my life. The Symphony has tapped leading New Jersey composer Steven Mackey to celebrate New Jersey Symphony's centennial with a new commission featuring original texts by former US Poet Laurate Tracy K. Smith.
