CONRAD TAO PLAYS BEETHOVEN
Matthias Pintscher, music director and conductor
Conrad Tao, piano  
 
LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN  Concerto No. 1 in C Major for Piano and Orchestra
CONRAD TAO (Kansas City Symphony commission and World Premiere) 
LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN  Symphony No. 7 in A Major
 
It’s a new year and time for some new music! The Kansas City Symphony has commissioned a work from Conrad Tao, a supremely imaginative young musician, and we’re excited to share it with you in this world premiere performance! Not only will you hear Tao’s compositional excellence, you’ll delight in his amazing piano skills as he performs Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 1, a work that Beethoven composed as a showpiece for himself. Embodying the charm and elegance of Haydn and Mozart while hinting at the revolutionary music ahead, this charismatic work is pure delight, especially in Tao’s talented hands.
 
Rounding out this inspiring concert is Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony. Clarion horn calls, hypnotic rhythms, intense laments, playful melodies, wildly exuberant outbursts and triumphant declarations all combine to take you on an emotional journey like no other.
