Title

"From Our Home To Yours," The MKE Symphony Orchestra's Virtual Performance of "Nimrod"

Description

An enchanting and virtual performance by the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra was made public for anyone, symphony fanatic or not, to enjoy the sounds of "Nimrod," by Edward Elgar. The performance was on Variations on an Original Theme Enigma, Op. 36 (Variation IX (Adagio). They gave the symphony a new forum by bringing it from their homes to ours which could have the potential to reach more people by making it public for all to hear and see. The orchestra stated on the original post that, "We are looking ahead to brighter days when we can gather in the new Bradley Symphony Center. Until that time, the musicians, staff, and board of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra send warm wishes of safety and health to all." Throughout the video, one can see the smiles and enjoyment the musicians are having. In their homes, they have equipment to continue practicing (and performing) while they are unable to congregate as one body for performances.
