Gewandhaus Orchestra of Leipzig in San Francisco
Riccardo Chailly 0910
Riccardo Chailly, conductor

When Chopin left his beloved Poland, he bid his homeland farewell with his First Piano Concerto, a masterpiece that paired his genius for piano with sensitive orchestral writing.

“But cultural life in [Leipzig] has been transformed by the arrival of Riccardo Chailly as music director . . .  In three years he has taken a sleeping giant and galvanised it into one of the world's most responsive and passionate major orchestras.”—The London Times

Meet Ricarrdo Chailly and Louis Lortie at an exclusive CD signing immediately following the concert at the Symphony Store in the lobby.
