Tue 22 Jan 2008 7:30pm at Symphony Hall
When Ashkenazy accompanies Kissin in Prokofiev’s most popular piano concerto, a celebrated pianist from an earlier generation will pay a graceful tribute to one of the young lions of the keyboard. Stand by also for the fascinating perspective revealed by a great pianist’s orchestration of Mussorgsky’s monumental piano work, Pictures at an Exhibition, a gallery of people, stories and places
Classic FM’s Anne-Marie Minhall says of tonight’s recommended concert:
“Symphony Hall plays host to two outstanding figures in classical music. Vladimir Ashkenazy’s distinguished career, as both pianist and conductor, spans forty years. Sharing the stage is one of the best pianists in the world, Evgeny Kissin. Be sure to book early for what promises to be a terrific evening of music.”
