Event Description
Conductor Francesco Lecce-Chong leads a dynamic performance of operatic and symphonic treasures by Mozart and other masters. Experience the brilliant orchestral color and charm of 24-year-old Mozart’s rarely performed ballet music from his opera, Idomeneo. Then, kinetic French pianist David Fray tackles the turbulent maelstrom of the composer’s Piano Concerto No. 24. Also on the program, Verdi’s powerful overture to his grand opera I vespri siciliani, and the vivacious Mediterranean postcard of Elgar’s Alassio.
