Conductor

Equipped with a frivolous potpourri of musical insults, legendary actor John Malkovich slips into the role of the evil critic who believes the music of Beethoven, Chopin, Prokofiev and the likes to be weary and dreary. Aleksey Igudesman, Hyung-ki Joo and other great musicians beg to differ and fight back. Join us for an entertaining evening of comedy and classical music.
