In this livestream performance, hear the eloquent, deeply powerful Lyric for Strings by groundbreaking composer George Walker, the first African American to win the Pulitzer Prize for Music. Plus, Principal Oboe Jonathan Fischer performs Mozart’s lyrical Oboe Quartet in F major alongside members of the Houston Symphony string section. The concert also highlights members of the Symphony’s horn and cello sections.
