Detroit Symphony Orchestra with Augustin Hadelich, Stravinsky, and more

Violinist Augustin Hadelich, born in Italy to German parents, wows with his ravishing tone and technique. He won a Grammy in 2016 and has collaborated with top orchestras like the Vienna and Berlin Philharmonics. Known for Bach interpretations and his recordings on Warner Classics.

Founded in 1914, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra (DSO) has thrived despite challenges, with highlights like the first radio symphonic concert in 1922. Under directors like Ossip Gabrilowitsch, Paul Paray, and Leonard Slatkin, the DSO gained international acclaim and won several awards. It overcame financial woes and now thrives at the restored Orchestra Hall. Notable collaborations include Chandos, Mercury, and Naxos labels. Jader Bignamini became music director in 2020, continuing DSO’s legacy of excellence.
