Event Information

Yehuda Gilad, Conductor Aleksandra Melaniuk, Conductor, Salonen Conducting Fellow HyeJin Park, Piano After a fiery overture by Polish composer Grazyna Bacewicz, this concert centers on two of classical music's greatest voices. While at its core an elegant and charming Classical-era composition, Beethoven's second piano concerto includes delightful and innovative surprises that harken to his later Romantic roots. Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 2, on the other hand, is Romantic through and through. This orchestral masterwork is teeming with achingly beautiful melodies, luscious orchestral colors, and vivid emotions. The Colburn Orchestra is generously underwritten by Eva and Marc Stern.
