“[Previn has] an elegantly light touch.”—New York Times
As part of Carnegie Hall’s celebration of the 80th birthday of composer, conductor, and pianist André Previn, this concert features the maestro performing and conducting one of Mozart’s most dramatic and robustly orchestrated piano concertos. The Philadelphia Orchestra’s famously luxurious sound is on full display in Symphonia domestica, a mock-heroic musical depiction of family life, with themes representing Richard Strauss, his wife, and his child.
Pre-concert talk starts at 7:00 PM in Stern Auditorium/Perelman Stage with Bryan Gilliam, Duke University.
