Recreation - the NEW Season!
Relaxation with Recreation
In the real world, tensions between powers are growing daily and breathtakingly. In the beautiful refuge of our concert halls, we focus on relaxation and reflect on the benefits of collaborating with others. Starting with the very first note: Stravinsky wrote his “Firebird” for the Ballets Russes in Paris. Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 premiered in Boston, played by the German Hans von Bülow. And Mei-Ann Chen, our Taiwanese chief conductor, recently appointed professor of conducting at one of America’s most prestigious music schools, the Manhattan School of Music, shares many inspiring stories in the new Recreation season, conducting several works by great female composers.
She presents Ravel’s Bolero and Barber’s Adagio, as well as the Eroica for the Beethoven anniversary year 2027. Claire Huangci performs Mozart’s Piano Concertos Nos. 24 and 25 as soloist/conductor. And yet another soloist reveals her talents as a brilliant conductor: Andrea Götsch, clarinetist with the Vienna Philharmonic. Right before Christmas, Michael Hofstetter returns to the Recreation podium to celebrate Bach’s Christmas Oratorio.
In the series Recreation Baroque, violinists Maria Kubizek and Chouchane Siranossian follow Vivaldi’s Four Seasons through the year. And Christian Binde and Alfredo Bernardini provide wind instrument brilliance on the horn and oboe.
Join us. We look forward to seeing you!
