Zusammenfassung: | The London Symphony Orchestra celebrates the 70th birthday of its principal guest conductor, Michael Tilson Thomas, with a program perfectly suited to the musician it honors! They begin with Colin Matthews's 1992 orchestral arrangement of Hidden Variables (an avant-garde work originally composed for chamber ensemble), an arrangement that MTT--a strong and tireless advocate of contemporary music--commissioned himself. Next the conductor's frequent musical collaborator, Yuja Wang, pays tribute to him with an effervescent performance one of the few piano concertos written by an American composer: Gershwin's Concerto in F Major. Shostakovich's Fifth brings the concert to a close with an intimate performance that shows the close relationship between this brilliant conductor and his equally-brilliant orchestra. |
