Virginia Symphony Orchestra | Eric Jacobsen, conductor | Finding Peace at Potsdam


Step into a turning point in history — Potsdam, Germany, 1945. The war has ended, but the future hangs in the balance. Truman, Churchill, and Stalin sit across the table, navigating mistrust, determination, and fragile hope as they shape the post-war world. Amidst the tension of delicate political negotiations, the world leaders bonded over their love of music. Finding Peace at Potsdam brings this fascinating moment to life through powerful storytelling and stirring performances of their beloved classics. Experience the music of Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Kreisler, and more, woven together with insights that reveal the surprising role Hampton Roads played in this pivotal chapter of history. It's more than a concert — it's an unforgettable journey through music and memory, where history's struggles and triumphs resonate in every note. These performances are made possible through a generous gift from the Susan Goode Performance Fund. May 29 performance funded in part by City of Norfolk.
