Under the direction of Benjamin Haemhouts, Casco Phil shines a light on youthful masters and their legacy. Mozart’s First Symphony already reveals his genius at just eight years old. Next comes Mendelssohn’s lyrical and virtuosic Violin Concerto, with a playful nod to Mozart, performed by violinist Sylvia Huang.

We conclude with Beethoven’s groundbreaking Third Symphony, the “Eroica” — a bold turning point in music history. An evening of youthful spirit, fiery expression, and timeless beauty.
