Absorb the hauntingly beautiful poetic qualities of Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4—which Leonard Bernstein called “one of the most sublime moments in the history of music.” Contrast that with Sibelius’ energetic and triumphant symphony—and its memorable brass fanfares.

With Image Magnification (IMAG) on the big screen for a closer look at the guest artist, conductor and orchestra musicians!

“[Pianist Yulianna Avdeeva’s] playing [of Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3] was sprightly and lithe and surprising, infusing cutting melodies with warmth and even optimism.” - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
