This Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra concert begins with Haydn and ends with Tchaikovsky, with a rarely played Schulhoff piece that flips the switch on the traditional concerto grosso in between. Jeanelle Thompson, the new RPO principal second violin and Joshua Newberger, the new principal viola, drove through a snow storm to chat with Julia Figueras about Haydn's humor, Tchaikovsky's passionate Pathetique, how they approach a new piece, and what a principal actually does.
A collection of discussions between special guests and Music Director and midday host, Julia Figueras.
On Record with Jeanelle Thompson and Joshua Newberger
