Bold & Beautiful — Romantic Symphonies & Orchestral Drama (Beethoven • Brahms • Grand Concert Music)

Bold & Beautiful presents a powerful journey through the emotional depth of the Romantic orchestral tradition — music defined by drama, struggle, and triumph.

This program brings together:

the revolutionary spirit of Beethoven,
the monumental symphonic architecture of Brahms,
and a vivid concert atmosphere captured live in the United States.

🎨 Artwork:
The Bold Woman (1888)
Ferdinand Hodler (Swiss, 1853–1918)

Hodler’s painting reflects strength, dignity, and inner resolve — qualities that mirror the music in this collection, where orchestral sound becomes a statement of character and conviction.

Barbara Schubert & the DuPage Symphony Orchestra
Recorded live at Wentz Concert Hall, Naperville, Illinois (2011)
