Walt Disney Concert Hall (Los Angeles, CA)
Polish contemporary classical composer Henryk Górecki’s Third Symphony mesmerized the musical world, selling more than a million copies around the globe. His Fourth Symphony, left unfinished at the time of the composer’s death, now receives its American premiere in a completion by his son, composer Mikolaj Górecki, based on his father’s instructions. This new work pays homage to Górecki’s Polish colleague Alexandre Tansman, whose own tribute to Stravinsky opens the program. Also included is Sibelius’ mercilessly beautiful Violin Concerto, performed by the Danish-Israeli master Nikolaj Znaider. As part of Walt Disney Concert Hall’s new series Inside the Music With Brian Lauritzen, your ticket includes exclusive access to pre-show talks, post-show Q&As with the musicians, videos that take you beyond the program notes and even an online game.
