Maestro Zubin Mehta leads the SOI in yet another symphonic concert featuring the works of Brahms & Tchaikovsky. Brahms’ Symphony No. 1 is considered Brahms' most personal and emotional musical statement. It's a symbol of a change in era and a manifestation of romantic thinking. Tchaikovsky composed his fourth symphony in 1877 which premiered in Moscow on February 10, 1878. He wrote that he was severely depressed when writing the symphony, and that it serves as a faithful echo of what he was experiencing.

Box Office: 15th December for Friends of the SOI, NCPA Members and MMMF Patrons & 17th December for Public.
