Luctus Profugis to feature in Minnesota Orchestra’s 24-25 season

Luctus Profugis will be featured in the 2024-205 season of the Minnesota Orchestra, conducted by Thomas Søndergård. The concerts on May 8 & 9, 2025 at Orchestra Hall, will also feature Mozart (Ingrid Fliter playing Piano Concerto No. 17) and Shostakovich (Symphony No. 11, The Year 1905). Written in 2016, Luctus Profugis is a lament for string orchestra and vibraphone that reflects on the 2015–2019 European refugee crisis. The title translates roughly from the Latin as “Grief for the Displaced.”
