A composer’s Opus 1 is a declaration. It is a moment of arrival, when a composer steps forward and says, “This is who I am.” This Reflections program explores the first published works of major composers. From Beethoven’s assured early chamber writing and Paganini’s brilliant self-portrait as a violin virtuoso, to Rachmaninoff’s expansive lyricism and Alban Berg’s late-Romantic intensity on the verge of breaking through into modernism, each work reveals a composer defining a public voice.
