On June 25, 1910, Igor Stravinsky entered a Paris theater as an unknown composer and left as a celebrity. That night, he launched his career and his sumptuous score to The Firebird. Join Associate Conductor Deanna Tham as she leads the orchestra in this landmark piece along with the US premiere of a new concerto for cellist Inbal Segev from Grammy-nominated composer Vijay Iyer.
Steeped in jazz, blues, and ragtime, Gershwin’s Concerto in F Major is a quintessentially American take on the classical concerto, making it the perfect vehicle for the dynamic pianist Aaron Diehl. Shostakovich's brooding, deeply personal Tenth Symphony pursues great extremes in emotion and orchestral color, from wistful wind solos to menacing marches.
