Description
Experience the unforgettable as your Colorado Symphony and Principal Conductor Peter Oundjian showcase iconic works by Rachmaninoff and Mahler. In 2023, Simon Trpčeski made it clear why he's considered one of today's most exciting pianists with his dazzling interpretation of the Paganini Variations; now, he returns to perform Rachmaninoff again — this time, as featured soloist on the stunning Second Piano Concerto. Combining glorious melody and swelling orchestration, it's no secret why this is regarded as one of the best concertos ever written.
Mahler’s Seventh Symphony stands out as one of the most provocative symphonic statements of the early 20th century. Radical and forward-looking, the Seventh Symphony is a triumphant journey from night to day. Utilizing unorthodox instruments with unusual techniques, Mahler creates a soundscape where the orchestra is heard like never before in a work that signaled the end of romanticism, an historic turning point that Mahler faces head-on, giving us a symphony that is as beautiful as it is novel.
