Haydn Trumpet Concerto with the Grand Teton Music Festival Orchestra

Festival Orchestra: Shostakovich & Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto
Fri July 17, 2026 – Sat July 18, 2026

Beloved Festival Orchestra member Conrad Jones moves from the brass section to the front of the stage to perform Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto, one of the finest concertos ever written for the instrument and the only one Haydn ever wrote. In contrast to Haydn’s singular piece are two works by important 20th century icons – a playful literary overture by American Samuel Barber, The School for Scandal Overture, and an incredibly precocious college graduation project by Dmitri Shostakovich, his Symphony No. 1.
