Rapids Symphony Opens With Treger Concert
Bill Johnson reviews the Cedar Rapids Symphony opening night of the 1966-67 season. Henry Denecke conducts a program featuring Kabalevsky violin concerto with soloist Charles Treger and Kalinnikov Symphony No. 1. The reviewer praises the orchestra’s precision and brio, criticizes balance and moments of weakness, and notes Treger’s playing while lamenting the overall lack of sustained character.
