About the Event
Showcasing the talents of Shepherd School Concerto Competition Winner Jonathan Mak, Brahms’s formidable Piano Concerto No. 2 courses with thundering power and luminous poetry. Music doesn’t get any more fun than Strauss’s Till Eulenspiegel’s Merry Pranks, which follows a wily trickster as he upends the establishment and cavorts from one prank to the next. Based on a well-known tune by Paganini, Blacher’s Variations on a Theme of Paganini sparkle with sharp wit and dazzling invention.
