“So compelling is Evgeny Kissin’s pianism,” writes The Times of London, “so fresh his response to even the most familiar phrases, that one hangs on every note.” He performs Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4 with the outstanding MET Orchestra on this program, which also marks the return of Music Director and Conductor James Levine after a two-year hiatus. The legendary conductor leads the ensemble through excerpts from Wagner’s Lohengrin and Schubert’s “Great” Symphony.
