**Symphonie Fantastique by The Phoenix Symphony**

Join The Phoenix Symphony for an unforgettable evening of music and emotion with "Symphonie Fantastique." Under the baton of Mexican-American conductor Robert Treviño, the orchestra will bring to life Berlioz's epic masterpiece, a vivid portrayal of an artist's unrequited love and his descent into a dreamlike state of hallucinations. This performance promises to captivate audiences with its rich orchestral textures and dramatic narrative.

Adding to the evening's allure, Russian pianist Denis Kozhukhin will grace the stage, performing Ravel’s Piano Concerto in G. This piece, known for its blend of Basque folk music and American jazz, starts with an electrifying crack of a whip and concludes with a thrilling rush to the finish.

The concert repertoire also includes Gabriela Ortiz's "Téenek," inspired by the indigenous Huastec people, alongside the mystery and magic of Berlioz's "Symphonie Fantastique." A yet-to-be-revealed Mystery Piece will complete the evening's program, promising surprises and delights for the audience.

Symphonie Fantastique

Phoenix Convention Center

Outstanding Mexican artists treat the audience to timeless classics and stirring new music. Jorge Federico Osorio, hailed as “an imaginative interpreter with a powerful technique” (New York Times), takes on Beethoven’s intensely energetic Piano Concerto No. 3. Rachmaninoff’s lush and lively Symphonic Dances come alive under the baton of Carlos Miguel Prieto—who returns following his “revolutionary,” “high-octane” 2018 NSO debut (Washington Classical Review).

A trio of influencers had hands in creating the Three-Cornered Hat — the impresario Sergei Deaghilev, Pablo Picasso and composer Manuel de Falla. De Falla’s ballet score stands apart, setting a lighthearted story (a love triangle) to dances full to the brim with Spanish flair and castanets. Gabriela Ortiz’s Téenek transcends place and time, and pianist Francesco Piemontesi joins the CSO for Beethoven’s gentle and poetic Piano Concerto No. 4

After intermission, LSO dials up the emotion with Tchaikovsky’s passionate Symphony No. 6 (Pathétique).
