Ah, the Ars Viva experience: ever the perfect mix of tried and true treasures with new discoveries.

Needing your annual Mozart fix? Warm up with his most popular work of all, revel in his amazing writing for flute and harp, then discover a serenade that you may never have heard before – one that actually contains a complete miniature violin concerto among its movements. It will make you smarter: Mozart does that!

More Kodály, back by popular demand, paired with Bartók’s brilliant concerto, then finished off with the Sibelius symphony most loved by those who cherish his music. Return home still humming Sibelius’ best-known work, Finlandia. Does the common bond between the Hungarian and Finnish languages extend to a musical vocabulary? Judge for yourself.

High on the list of discoveries at Ars Viva has always been the identification of amazing performers on the rise, here the winner of the second annual Music Institute of Chicago Competition. Also discover a wonderfully engaging work by a Chicago-based composer, and find out where Hindemith got the inspiration for his brilliant homage to Weber. What a great way to cap off a season that is both incredible and indelible! That’s Ars Viva!
