LAWRENCE GOLAN, CONDUCTOR
LEONEL MORALES, PIANO
Composers captivated by rivers transform their works. Moved by tragedy, Brahms’ Piano Concerto No. 1 ebbs and flows with the treacherous yet gentle movement of the Rhine; Leonel Morales returns to the YSO as the featured pianist. Duke Ellington follows the transforming flow of water in the theatrical “The River.” Known as the ‘waltz king,’ Strauss’ composed “On the Beautiful Blue Danube” to boost wartime spirits with his uplifting work. Bedrich Smetana’s folk-inspired “The Moldau” is a symphonic poem that admires the Vltava River through the magnificent Bohemian landscape.
JOHANNES BRAHMS: Piano Concerto No. 1
DUKE ELLINGTON: The River
JOHANN STRAUSS, JR.: On the Beautiful Blue Danube
BEDRICH SMETANA: The Moldau
