Originally dedicated to Joseph Joachim, the program continues with his Variations for Violin and Orchestra, a technically demanding and deeply expressive showcase.The evening concludes with Robert Schumann’s Second Symphony, a work shaped by personal struggle. “Trumpets and drums have been sounding in my mind for quite a while now; I have no idea what will come of it,” he wrote while composing it. Battling illness and depression, Schumann ultimately emerged with a triumphant, energetic finale—“in which I am myself again.”
