Orpheus Chamber Orchestra w/ Marc-André Hamelin
Orpheus Chamber Orchestra with Marc-André Hamelin
Presented in partnership with the Sunderman Conservatory of Music, funded in part by the Sunderman Chamber Music Foundation.
New York's Grammy-Award winning Orpheus Chamber Orchestra returns, joining forces with pianist Marc-André Hamelin, who The New York Times called "a performer of near-superhuman technical prowess." Together they will perform arrangements for Piano and Orchestra including Liszt's Wanderer Fantasy (after Schubert's D. 760) and Subert's Chamber Symphony in B-flat Major (after D. 960).
Renowned for their collaborative spirit, the Grammy-Award winning Orpheus Chamber Orchestra has played without a conductor since their inception, performing with "edge-of-the-seat intensity" and displaying an "infectious love for making music" (The New York Times) for audiences around the world. Orpheus is a radical experiment in musical democracy, proving for over fifty years what happens when exceptional artists gather with total trust in each other and faith in the creative process. Whether at New York's Carnegie Hall, or top concert halls throughout the world, Orpheus stuns audiences with their insightful musicianship and novel democratic approach.
Program:
Michi WIANCKO: The Chopiniana Suite
LISZT/Hong: Wanderer Fantasy after Schubert
SCHUBERT/Breuer: Kammersymphonie in B-Dur, after D960
