Beckett under Glass

Evening Music | May 6, 2010
Tonight, the Kremerata Baltica perform "Company," Philip Glass's suite for string orchestra taken from his 1983 incidental music to a stage adaptation of Samuel Beckett's short novel of the same name.

Also, expect a relaxing second hour with Beethoven's "Pastoral" Symphony; George Szell conducts the Cleveland Orchestra. And lest you be a little too sedate after that, pianist Martha Argerich shakes it up in our third hour with Tchaikovsky's grandiose First Piano Concerto; Claudio Abbado leads the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.
