From the venue:

ASO: “The violin can sing a melody better than a piano, and melody is the soul of music,” Max Bruch once said. While pianists might beg to differ on that point, this weekend is all about the violin. With Stradivarius in hand, Concertmaster David Coucheron plays Bruch’s Scottish Fantasy, not quite a concerto in the strictest sense of the word, but still a great showpiece for the instrument. With hints of Scottish folk melodies and the addition of harp solos played by Principal Harp Elisabeth Remy Johnson, Bruch’s Scottish Fantasy is one of his best-known and best-loved works.
