Lift off with Jeremy Denk, who graduated with an unlikely double degree in chemistry and piano performance from Oberlin College and Conservatory. Noted for his fresh musical interpretations, this young American brings his “bracing, effortlessly virtuosic and utterly joyous” playing (The New York Times) to the works of two earlier musical innovators, Mozart and Stravinsky. The works also highlight our “perfect” violins and the “exemplary virtuosity and musicality…” of our winds (Resmusica.com, Paris). The penultimate concert of our 41st season concludes with Mozart’s 41st Symphony in C major, “the greatest orchestral work of the world that preceded the French Revolution” (Sir George Grove, 1906). The program also includes: Stravinsky’s Concerto in D major for String Orchestra, Stravinsky’s Concerto for Piano and Wind Instruments,
and Mozart’s Concert Rondo in D major for Piano and Orchestra.
