Cedar Rapids Symphony shines with Treger in Mendelssohn concert
The Cedar Rapids Symphony under Christian Tiemeyer earned praise for a refined Mendelssohn Violin Concerto in E minor featuring guest violinist Charles Treger, a University of Iowa School of Music alumnus noted for his Wieniawski Competition win. Treger’s performance paired silvery upper tones with expressive second movement poetry, followed by a vigorous finale. The Mahler First Symphony offered a stark contrast, culminating in a dramatic horn-led chorus. A second Discovery Series outing with Treger and Tiemeyer repeats tonight at the Paramount at 8:00.
