Upon visiting America, Czech composer Antonin Dvorak was moved to write his ninth symphony, From a New World, a beguiling masterwork pulsing with the excitement and energy of a young nation even as it summons poignant echoes of slave spirituals and Native American songs. With special guest conductor Maestro En Shao at the helm, Orange County's Pacific Symphony performs this evocative piece at Segerstrom Center for the Arts. The jam-packed concert also includes Li Huanzhi's delightful Spring Festival Overture as well as Bruch's beloved Violin Concerto No.1 featuring the turbo-charged Chinese soloist Dan Zhu.
