Events Description
Conductor Jessica Cottis leads guest pianist Jonathan Biss and the NAC Orchestra for two performances of a Beethoven classic opuses with a contemporary twist.
Composer Sally Beamish’s wonderful City Stanzas answers Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 1 with her own modern musical vision.
Prokofiev said his tender, haunting Fifth Symphony glorified freedom and the purity of the human spirit—but under Stalin, what else could he say?
Powerhouse conductor Jessica Cottis inspires orchestras to new heights with her magnetism and energy. She has led some of the finest orchestras in the world, from London to Sydney to LA to Singapore. The NAC Orchestra is delighted to welcome her for these performances celebrating the fevered genius of Ludwig van Beethoven, who wrote the finale for his Piano Concerto No. 1 (which, confusingly, was not the first one he wrote) just two days before its premiere.
