    Kurt Masur leads a program of sun-dappled days and shadowy nights. The concert opens with the sweet and cheerful sounds of Brahms's Second Symphony, composed during a summer holiday in 1877. Next, violinist Sergey Khachatryan makes his Philadelphia Orchestra debut with Shostakovich's First Violin Concerto-filled with music that is questioning and uncertain, before culminating in energetic resolution. Richard Strauss's wry and spritely tone poem about spirited hijinks and practical jokes rounds off this delicious evening.
