Description
The Palo Alto Philharmonic brings their 28th season to a rousing conclusion with works by Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, and Jordi Cervelló. Violinist Joseph Gold, well known for his virtuosic performances of composers such as Paganini and Sarasate, will play a concerto by Cervelló, a Catalan composer (born in 1935) notable for his explorations of the complex sounds that can be created by stringed instruments. The concert also features Beethoven’s dramatic Leonora Overture No. 3 and Sergei Rachmaninoff ’s Symphonic Dances, an orchestral suite in three movements. Completed in 1940, the Dances reflect the composer’s nostalgia for the Russia he had left in 1917.There will be a pre-concert talk at 7:30 pm
