They say “good things come in threes”, and that’s certainly the case with this concert’s trifecta of the Festival Orchestra, Rachmaninoff and Copland. Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No.3–often called the Mt. Everest of piano concerto repertoire–begins the program. About the exciting young guest pianist Maxim Lando, the New York Times proclaimed that he displayed “brilliance and infectious exuberance” in performance. The concert’s triadic theme continues with Copland’s Symphony No. 3. Known as the essential American symphony, the work fuses the composer’s distinct Americana style with the traditional European symphony form. Weaving throughout the work is Copland’s majestic theme from his Fanfare for the Common Man.
