Max Bruch

Randall Goosby sits on a black couch against a caramel-colored wall. He wears a white, collared quarter zip with white pants. He has a black crewcut that's faded on the sides and chocolate-brown eyes. He hold his violin with both hands by the neck and looks off camera, smiling as if he's laughing.

In an encore broadcast, the youngest-ever winner of the Sphinx Concerto Competition is the soloist in Bruch’s spirited Violin Concerto No. 1, and Andris Nelsons leads the BSO in works by Felix Mendelssohn and Ethel Smyth.
