Delaware County Symphony Presents Eternal Offerings Symphony Concert
The Delaware County Symphony is thrilled to announce its third symphonic concert of the season, featuring world-renowned soprano, Katherine Whyte. This exceptional performance, titled Eternal Offerings, will take place on Sunday, March 2 in Neumann University’s Meagher Theater.
​
The concert opens with the dramatic Overture to the opera Rosamunde by Franz Schubert. The stage is now set for Katherine Whyte's performance of Richard Strauss’s Four Last Songs. Acclaimed for her “glamorous, vibrato-rich voice,” Whyte will bring these poignant and deeply emotional final works of Strauss to life. The concert concludes with Antonín DvoÅ™ák’s Symphony No. 7, one of the composer’s most celebrated works, widely regarded as one of the greatest examples of symphonic artistry.
​
