About the Event
Experience the much‐anticipated concert featuring the enchanting sounds of classical music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Johannes Brahms at Rome's esteemed Chiesa di S. Paolo entro le Mura (St. Paul’s Within the Walls Church).
PART 1 — W. A. Mozart
Symphony in D major K.385 “Haffner”
Composed in 1782, the “Haffner” Symphony ranks as one of Mozart’s most radiant and celebratory orchestral pieces. Initially crafted as a serenade to honor the ennoblement of Sigmund Haffner, a family ally, it evolved into a full symphony. With its dynamic energy, graceful form, and spirited character, this work perfectly captures the essence of Classical Vienna, harmoniously balancing orchestral brilliance with melodic elegance.

Andante – Conductor: Miguel Barber (Spain)
Menuetto – Conductor: Daniel Torres (Mexico)
Finale. Presto – Conductor: Stephan Smoktunowicz (England)
PART 2 — J. Brahms
Symphony No. 4 Op.98 in E minor
Brahms’s final symphony is renowned as a masterpiece of emotional richness and structural refinement. Created between 1884 and 1885, the piece is distinguished by its somber and introspective character, alongside its architectural poise and intricate counterpoint. The celebrated final movement, crafted as a passacaglia, pays tribute to the Baroque tradition while infusing it with Romantic fervor, culminating in a compelling and dramatic orchestral apex.
