“Goddess of a thousand names, let us celebrate your mysteries…” The story of Persephone is as ancient as western culture: an ever-fresh parable of motherly love, untamed lust and the eternal cycle of nature. In 1934, Igor Stravinsky rose to its challenge: the result is part ballet, part opera, but all Stravinsky.

“Goddess of a thousand names, let us celebrate your mysteries…” The story of Persephone is as ancient as western culture: an ever-fresh parable of motherly love, untamed lust and the eternal cycle of nature. In 1934, Igor Stravinsky rose to its challenge: and the original result was part ballet, part opera, but all Stravinsky.

When Rachmaninoff first performed his Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, it had the audience in raptures. The extraordinary pianist had written a showstopper, and audiences have loved its lush, romantic melodies for nearly 100 years. Now, the ever-adventurous pianist Dejan Lazić returns to the ACO to play it, in a new arrangement for piano and strings.

Hilary Hahn is one of the top violinists of our time, with three Grammy awards to her name and a devoted fan base who will travel hundreds of miles to hear her live.  

She joins the Philharmonia for Prokofiev’s Violin Concerto No. 2. Lyrical, long-breathed melodies fill the first two movements. But the violin’s singing lines are tinged with darkness, and give way to a stumbling dance in the finale.

Rediscover 20th-century classics that represent landmark moments in The Philadelphia Orchestra’s history! The Orchestra performed the 1922 U.S. premiere of Stravinsky’sThe Rite of Spring, the work that had so scandalized Paris audiences only nine years earlier. In 1934, the Orchestra gave the U.S. premiere of Shostakovich's First Piano Concerto, one of 11 of the composer's works this Orchestra brought to America for the first time. In these concerts, Shostakovich’s witty, irreverent Concerto will be performed by the “astonishing” Seong-Jin Cho, a pianist of “sensitivity, nuance, tremendous fluidity and elegance of style” (Bachtrack).

Anyone who wins the junior section of the legendary International Tchaikovsky Competition at the age of 13 is under special scrutiny. Even ten years later, Alexander Malofeev continues to fulfill the associated expectations with flying colors. Since then, the Russian, dubbed a "world revolution on the piano" by the Wiener Standard, has collected numerous other prizes and performed with the world's greatest orchestras. In 2022, he stood in for Yevgeny Kissin with the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra. "The audience went wild with enthusiasm," wrote the Frankfurter Rundschau. At the Elbphilharmonie, the still only 23-year-old now devotes himself to both the grand masters of Russian piano music and darkly shimmering works from Northern Europe.

The "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun" was the breakthrough for Claude Debussy in 1894, both for musical Impressionism and modern music in general. For a "symphonic poem," the roughly ten-minute work is quite short. It is introduced by an ascending and descending flute melody and becomes the nucleus of the piece. What was new about it was the dissolution of conventional tonality. Debussy was inspired to create this by a Javanese gamelan orchestra he had heard at the Paris World's Fair in 1889, whose music "made our tonic and dominant appear like ghosts."

Igor Stravinsky was a musical chameleon: a radical avant-gardist, a curious neoclassicist, and later even a proponent of twelve-tone music. Stagnation? None of this! Pulcinella, the ballet from his neoclassical phase, is based on music by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi. But Stravinsky wouldn't be Stravinsky if he hadn't created a modern soundscape from Baroque quotations. The result is a modern classic. Joseph Haydn is a classic of "true" classical music. His Trumpet Concerto in E-flat major is a stroke of genius: playful, virtuosic, and full of sophisticated surprises. He knew exactly how to captivate his audience—and how to challenge his soloists, in this case Roman Lemmel, principal trumpeter of the Bremen Philharmonic. And of course, Brahms: He is always a classic—even if not in the stylistic sense. Clara Schumann was enraptured by his Third Symphony: "What a work, what poetry! Every movement a jewel, every note of a single piece."

The SLSO and Saint Louis Dance Theatre come together in this exquisite, adventurous collaboration to imagine Stravinsky’s Pulcinella Suite in an entirely new way.

Ballet music from Claude Debussy and Albert Roussel completes a program that celebrates powerful partnerships between dance and music.
