'Tis the Season
Evening Music | May 6, 2010
As the season comes into full blossom, tonight's music celebrates the themes of spring, flowers, festivals, and travel. Our first part of the evening culminates in Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 23, the "Appassionata," as performed by Van Cliburn.
We'll also hear Max Reger's "Variations and Fugue on a Theme by Mozart," with Leif Segerstam conducting the Norrkoeping Symphony Orchestra. Guido Cantelli takes the helm of the New York Philharmonic as the alternating swells and currents of Debussy's "La mer" (The Sea) lull our spirits to rest and bring our evening to its close.
