GRIEG’S PIANO CONCERTO

Anu Tali, guest conductor
Chaeyoung Park, piano
 
EDVARD GRIEG  Piano Concerto
JEAN SIBELIUS   Symphony No. 1
 
Start your weekend with our must-see Friday night concert series and social experience, Symphonic Piazza. Prepare to escape, mingle, and be entertained as you enjoy the perfect combination of a shorter format concert with enjoyable and engaging lobby activities to share with family, friends, and our musicians. It’s your new go-to date night! The fun continues in the lobby after the concert, as we’ll have even more memorable things for you to experience.
 
Estonian conductor Anu Tali leads your Kansas City Symphony in a vibrant program of music that evokes northern landscapes. Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg’s Piano Concerto is one of the genre’s best-loved works and has one of the most dramatic openings of any piano concerto. The capstone of the performance is Finnish composer Jean Sibelius’s First Symphony. It was modeled after the famous “Pathétique” Symphony by Tchaikovsky, yet bears the original stamp of Sibelius, who was to become one of the greatest symphonic composers of the 20th century.
