RAVEL Le tombeau de Couperin
TCHAIKOVSKY Variations on a Rococo Theme for Cello and Orchestra
THOMAS ADÈS Three Studies from Couperin
RESPIGHI Gli uccelli (“The Birds”)
An eclectic program of stunning breadth and beauty! Tchaikovsky, Ravel, Respighi and Thomas Adès each drew upon the music of the Baroque to create new compositions that reflect 17th and 18th century music sensibilities. Jeffrey Kahane demonstrates his mastery of the chamber orchestra cannon and internationally acclaimed cellist Ralph Kirshbaum brings his “gorgeously nuanced range of shadings” (San Francisco Classical Voice) to Tchaikovsky’s elegant Rococo Variations.
