Beethoven Piano Concerto Cycle Program 1

Severance Music Center

Dive into the heart of American music with the Orchestre symphonique de Québec's captivating concert, "Aux portes de l’Amérique du XXe siècle," taking place on January 22, 2025, at 20:00 in the prestigious Palais Montcalm. Starting at just $55, this event promises an unforgettable journey through the evolution of American music, featuring the talented Clemens Schuldt as conductor and the remarkable Julia Hagen on cello.

The evening will commence with an enriching prelude at 19:00, hosted by Clemens Schuldt, offering insights into the creative process and historical context of the pieces to be performed. This prelude session is a unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of the music and its significance before the main concert begins.

The concert lineup includes a selection of works that pay homage to American music, starting with Copland's "Fanfare for the Common Man," a majestic tribute to the soldiers of World War II. The program also features "The Chairman Dances" by Adams, Haydn's "Cello Concerto No. 1," and Barber's deeply moving "Adagio," among others. Each piece has been carefully selected to showcase the diversity and richness of American music, from its folk roots to its classical heights.

Julia Hagen, a young protegee of Gauthier Capuçon, will enchant the audience with her cello performance, bringing to life the lightness of Haydn's work contrasted with the profound depth of Barber's compositions. The concert will conclude with Copland's "Appalachian Spring," a ballet music piece that celebrates the spirit of American pioneers with its folk-inspired themes.

Don't miss this extraordinary evening with the Orchestre symphonique de Québec, where music and history intertwine to create a memorable experience. Tickets are available for purchase online or by phone at 1 877 641-6040. Join us at the Palais Montcalm for a night that honors the legacy and future of American music.
