Violinist Tail Murray and conductor Vinay Parameswaran

It only takes two this week for your Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra: a mighty journey with Wynton Marsalis' Violin Concerto and a glorious struggle with Jean Sibelius' Symphony No. 5. Your guides are guest conductor Vinay Parameswaran and violinist Tai Murray, who talked with Julia Figueras about the extraordinary language of Marsalis and the exquisite sonorities of Sibeius.
