Ax Plays Mozart

Always a favorite of Pittsburgh audiences, Emmanuel Ax returns to perform Mozart’s sublime, elegant, and altogether extraordinary piano concerto.  Music Director Manfred Honeck leads the PSO premiere of Korngold's only symphony, penned in his best melodic Hollywood style as a swashbuckling musical tribute to the life and achievements of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. A world premiere by Pittsburgh native Hannah Ishizaki completes the program.
