Alsop Conducts Chopin And Prokofiev by Lee III, Chopin, Prokofiev, sab 19 out 2024, De (2024/2024), Regente Marin Alsop, Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall, Baltimore, Estados Unidos

Music Director Laureate Marin Alsop leads a larger-than-life program inspired by real heroes and mythical archetypes. As one of his staunch champions, Maestra Alsop brings back James Lee III’s BSO-commissioned tribute to Harriet Tubman, praised by The Washington Post for its “bursts of tonal color.” Prokofiev's lithe and lively Fourth Symphony, initially a ballet depicting the parable of The Prodigal Son, traces a hero's foray into the outside world with vibrant, dance-infused drama. Japanese pianist Hayato Sumino, semifinalist and crowd favorite at the 2021 International Chopin Piano Competition, joins the BSO in a thrilling concerto by Chopin, whose ebullient, finger-twisting compositions broke all pianistic conventions.
