Concert Screening: Mikhaïl Pletnev conducts Glazunov and Tchaikovsky

Join us for this incredible exposition of classical music, dedicated to Russian composers. The concert begins with a rare treat: the Prelude from Glazunov's 1902 orchestral suite "From the Middle Ages." Evoking medieval Europe through orchestral music on an operatic scale, the suite portrays a passionate young couple, blissfully ignorant of the furious storm that surrounds them. The brilliant violinist Janine Jansen then takes the stage to perform Tchaikovsky's beloved "Violin Concerto in D Major," one of the most beautiful and technically-challenging of the genre. Despite the concerto's success, Tchaikovsky never wrote another work of its kind.
