Tchaikovsky, a genius at writing from the heart, was also a master at controlling the sounds of the orchestra, Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra music director Julian Kuerti's says of the beloved composer, whose Violin Concerto in D and Symphony No. 5 are featured on the next KSO program. The 2018 Stulberg Competition gold medalist Charlotte Marckx is excited to play her favorite concert with the orchestra. This performance was part of the prize she won at the competition last May.
