Trevor Pinnock, one of the great masters of Baroque and Classical music in our age, and Alexandra Dovgan, a young pianist already celebrated across the world for the majesty and beauty of her playing, join the Orchestra together for the first time for a glorious all-Beethoven program, filled with high drama, hope and nobility. After the tragic grandeur of the Coriolan Overture come two of Beethoven’s greatest and most uplifting masterpieces: the “Emperor” Concerto and the Seventh Symphony, both pieces of overwhelming power and invention.
