Join the La Crosse Symphony Orchestra for another LSO tradition, Songs of Freedom, our annual musical salute to our veterans. Bringing together the favorite with the unfamiliar. Violinist Elisa Lee Koljonen — who amazed us back in 2021 with her reading of the romantic Violin Concerto of Samuel Barber — returns to La Crosse. This time with a rarity: the Violin Sonata of Aaron Copland — “The Dean of American Composers” — in a stunning new orchestral version. After intermission, in a moment we’ve long been preparing for, one of the mightiest symphonies of all time: Beethoven’s revolutionary “Eroica”, with its thrilling call to freedom.
