Those attending this concert will have the opportunity to meet Maestro Esenvalds who is flying to St. Louis for this world première. Other works on the program include passionate songs by Dan Forrest, Stephen Paulus, and Romantic lieder from Agnes Tyrrell, an Anglo-Moravian musician working in Brno in the middle of the 19th century.
