About This Program

Step into a world where beauty and urgency collide in Mass in Time of War, a powerful orchestral concert that speaks across centuries. The evening opens with Mozart’s majestic Piano Concerto No. 25, a work of grandeur, grace, and defiant optimism composed during a time of political tension. Then experience the spiritual weight of Haydn’s Missa in Temper Belli (Mass in Time of War), where soaring choral lines and thunderous timpani reflect the realities of living through conflict while also making a heartfelt plea for peace. With timeless resonance and stirring contrast, this program offers a deeply moving reflection on humanity, resilience, and hope in troubled times.
