Witness a rare orchestral treasure as three world-class soloists unite for Beethoven's Triple Concerto—violinist Jennifer Frautschi, cellist Zuill Bailey, and pianist Christopher Shih—in an extraordinary conversation between three virtuosos and orchestra. The program opens with Tina Davidson's Bright Air, Brilliant Fire, inspired by ancient philosophy's four elements, and continues with Mendelssohn's beloved "Italian" Symphony, described by the composer as "blue sky in A major" and brimming with Mediterranean sunshine and dance. From elemental fire and Italian light to Beethoven's remarkable three-way dialogue, this concert showcases brilliant soloists in an unforgettable celebration of chamber music on the grandest scale.
