Hannah Kendall’s The Spark Catchers opens the program and is followed by a dramatic performance of Beethoven’s Third Piano Concerto by master pianist Benjamin Grosvenor.
Inspired by the dangerous conditions endured by young women who worked in match factories in the 1880s, Hannah Kendall’s The Spark Catchers opens the program and is followed by a dramatic performance of Beethoven’s Third Piano Concerto by master pianist Benjamin Grosvenor. To close, the orchestra performs Shostakovich’s enigmatic Symphony No. 15 for the very first time. A work that alludes to and quotes freely from the music of other composers, the shimmering final chords will leave you transfixed.
This concert repeats at the Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall in Baltimore, MD on Fri., March 11 at 8 PM and Sun., March 13 at 3 PM.
