The Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra's season finale includes a pair of doubles‹double concerti, that is. Angela Fuller and Milana Reiche, both first violinists in the Minnesota Orchestra, team up to open the concert with J.S. Bach's brilliant Concerto for Two Violins. The solo spotlight then shifts to two members of the MSO, bassoonists Kate Saumur and Tim Wells, who perform the Concerto for Two Bassoons by Mozart's contemporary, Johann Baptist Vanhal. William Schrickel and the MSO wrap up the season with Leonard Bernstein's Fancy Free, the sassy, jazzy dance score composed in 1944 for Ballet Theatre and later developed by Bernstein into the Broadway musical On the Town.
