Beethoven’s 7th Symphony & Chopin’s 2nd Piano Concerto

The Phoenix Symphony
Start Date
November 8 @ 2:00 pm
End Date
November 8 @ 4:00 pm

Notes fly off the page in Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7, an elemental, propulsive work full of driving energy that pushes an orchestra to its absolute limit. What audiences also remember is the gravitas of the second movement, featured in the climactic scene of the 2010 film “The King’s Speech.” Guest conductor Rei Hotoda, Music Director Designate of the Las Vegas Philharmonic, opens the evening with “blue cathedral,” a poignant tone poem by three-time Grammy Award winner Jennifer Higdon, winner of the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for Music. Though Frédéric Chopin was just 20 years old when he premiered his Piano Concerto in F minor, he composed an intimate work of bold drama, indescribable beauty and a lively mazurka inspired by his Polish heritage. Pianist Natasha Paremsky, a 2006 Gilmore Young Artist and 2007 winner of the Prix Montblanc, returns to Phoenix as soloist in the concerto by one of the greatest pianists who ever lived.
