Rachmaninoff’s Concerto, Sibelius’ Symphony Launch Pacific Symphony’s 47th Year
Pacific Symphony launches its 47th season with “Rachmaninoff & Sibelius,” bringing together two late-Romantic masterworks and two acclaimed guest artists. French conductor Ludovic Morlot, music director of the Barcelona Symphony Orchestra and conductor emeritus of the Seattle Symphony, leads the orchestra in Rachmaninoff’s beloved Piano Concerto No. 2 and Sibelius’ sweeping Symphony No. 1. Pianist Alessio Bax, praised by Gramophone as “among the most remarkable young pianists now before the public,” joins for the concerto.
