2. The Healing Heart of the First People of This Land
Don't miss this extraordinary evening of music featuring Bruce Ruddell’s Healing Heart of the First People of This Land. This powerful, 50-minute work was commissioned by Upper Skagit elder Vi taqʷšəblu Hilbert shortly after the 9/11 terrorist attacks as a vehicle for, in Hilbert’s words, “bringing healing to a sick world.” Premiered by the Seattle Symphony in 2006, the piece draws inspiration from two sacred Coast Salish songs Hilbert had entrusted to the composer and features a number of percussion instruments native to this region.

3. Stravinsky The Rite of Spring
Uproar greeted Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring, ushering in a musical revolution with its depiction of violence and Pagan ritual. The Seattle Symphony is proud to have co-commissioned a new work by Brian Raphael Nabors. Drawing inspiration from Maya Angelou’s writings, he celebrates the dawn of a new day of peacemaking.

5. Chick Corea to Wynton Marsalis

The vibe continues with Herrerías’ intricate and urgent dance rhythms, and a new work by Seth Krimsky himself. Then Brittany Breeden’s quartet of friends explores unique Americana drawn from the Deep South. In At The Octoroon Balls, Wynton Marsalis was inspired by creole musical traditions, translated for string quartet: fiddle reels, hoe downs, jug stomps and marching bands.

10. Nobuyuki Tsujii Plays Rachmaninov
Since winning joint Gold Medal at the 2009 Van Cliburn Competition, Nobuyuki Tsujii has become an international piano star. His performances are unforgettable. Power, emotion and precision have won him lasting fame. Here, he returns to Benaroya Hall to play Rachmaninov’s famous Third Piano Concerto, which demands thunderous power and feather touch from its soloist almost in one moment. Brahms’ final symphony, the Fourth — full of beauty and warmth but also tinged with melancholy — completes the program. In this symphony, Brahms weaves a complex web of musical ideas, culminating in a call back to the majesty of a Baroque dance rhythm — the Chaconne — on which he builds a mighty finale.
