Here's a chance to enjoy some familiar music along with pieces you may wish you'd known before.  Haydn, Beethoven, Wagner and Brahms praised Luigi Cherubini's 1797 operatic psychodrama Médée.  Now rarely performed, even its thrilling overture shows a revival is overdue.  Next, budding British-Persian cellist Ariana Kashefi is our captivating soloist in the popular Saint-Saëns concerto.  Never heard Tchaikovsky's Suite No. 1 for orchestra?  Prepare for a fascinating blend of his stirring symphonic and elegant ballet styles.
