Stefan de Leval Jezierski, the longest-serving horn player in the Berlin Philharmonic, will be guest soloist for the Boston Civic Symphony's performance of Richard Strauss’s Horn Concerto No. 1. The composer’s tone poem, Death and Transfiguration, depicting the death of an artist and hailed by French critic Romain Rolland as “one of the most moving works of Strauss,” will be the final piece of the 2017–2018 season.
