Mission: to seek and share inspiration
April 6-7, 2018
ENRICO CHAPELA: Radioaxial (World Premiere, CSO Commission)
BARBER: Piano Concerto
RACHMANINOFF: Symphonic Dances
Barber earned a Pulitzer Prize for his Piano Concerto, performed here by Inon Barnatan, whom The New York Times has called “one of the most admired pianists of his generation.” The optimistic Barber pairs beautifully with the Russian romanticism of Rachmaninoff’s beloved Symphonic Dances, all under the baton of the esteemed James Gaffigan.
Get inside the minds of composers and to the heart of the music with Classical Conversations, one hour before Friday, Saturday and Sunday Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra subscription concerts.
