About This Concert

- Boston icon and flutist extraordinaire Paula Robison joins us to celebrate the centennial of Leonard Bernstein's birth with a spellbinding performance of Halil, a concerto for flute and orchestra written in memory of flutist Yadin Tanenbaum, who was killed during the Yom Kippur war.
