Maurice Ravel’s music has been with Music Director Stéphane Denève his whole life. For him, Ravel locates the pure pleasure of sound, the pleasure of color. On this program we experience some of Ravel’s many sides, from childlike wonder in Mother Goose to orchestral virtuosity in Bolero. Kirill Gerstein sets himself a formidable challenge, playing both Ravel piano concertos on one program. The first is a brilliant ode to smoky jazz clubs, the other a virtuoso work for the left hand alone.

This concert celebrates the genius of two legendary composers. In honor of Jean Sibelius's 50th birthday, the Finnish government commissioned him to create his powerful Fifth Symphony, a masterpiece that has since become a cornerstone of the orchestral repertoire. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Clarinet Concerto, one of his final works, showcases soaring melodies and a beautifully sublime middle movement. Additionally, the evening will feature the ESO premiere of Zosha Di Castri's 2023 composition, "Pentimento," a piece that explores the concept of perpetual cycles in music.

The program for the evening includes:
- MOZART: Clarinet Concerto
- SIBELIUS: Symphony No. 5
- ZOSHA DI CASTRI: Pentimento (ESO Premiere)

Featured artists for the night are Naomi Woo, making her debut as conductor, and Narek Arutyunian, who will enchant us with his clarinet performance, also marking his ESO debut.

Please note that the program is subject to change and will include an intermission.

This concert is a part of our Saturday Classics Full and Saturday Classics 2 subscription packages. Subscribers are reminded to renew by May 1 to retain their preferred seats.

Strauss’ tone poem Don Juan is a bold musical retelling of the story of a serial womanizer.
