캐나다 Beethoven's Emperor Concerto

Featuring one of the most recognizable horn solos in the repertoire, Strauss’ tone poem Till Eulenspiegel’s Merry Pranks tells the story of a legendary mischief-maker who thumbs his nose at convention and creates mayhem wherever he goes.  Also on the program is a world premiere for string orchestra from Assistant Concertmaster, Mark Volkert, the Orchestra’s longest tenured member.  The program concludes with the majestic melodies of Beethoven’s final piano concerto performed by Grammy®-winning pianist Yefim Bronfman.    Written in the shadow of Napoleon’s occupation of Vienna, the Emperor is one of Beethoven’s boldest and most heroic works.
