Jeffery Meyer, conductor | Pulitzer prize-winning composer Steven Stucky’s work Radical Light from 2007 is placed alongside Brahms’ glorious second symphony. Stucky is the 2015-16 Visiting Husa Professor of Composition at Ithaca College and will present a pre-concert talk on the work at 3pm in Ford Hall. The SFGate raves that Radical Light unfolds in a single span that encompasses a wealth of moods and orchestral colors. Brahms’ second symphonic essay fell from his pen with relative ease after the torturous birth of its predecessor. The work unfolds gently, growing from the simplest of materials and undergoing constant variation until its radiant and brilliant ending.
