Esa-Pekka Salonen & Yuja Wang
February 13, 14, 15 & 16, 2025
Overview
Debussy’s Images outlines a vivid realm of ancient dances, sun-splashed Spanish ballads, and intoxicating orchestral colors. The endlessly inventive Yuja Wang brings her dramatic flair and interpretive finesse to two piano concertos: Maurice Ravel’s dark and intense Piano Concerto for the Left Hand and Einojuhani Rautavaara’s post-modern Piano Concerto No. 1, which the composer described as a return to “the aesthetics of expressiveness.”Concert Extras
Stop by the bar to enjoy delicious Valentine’s sweets and a custom pomegranate cocktail, the Cupid’s Arrow.
