Let’s celebrate! George Gershwin’s Piano Concerto turns 100 this year, and the WSO is excited to kick off its 78th season with this amazing piece! Gershwin’s concerto combines classical form with jazz-inspired rhythms, creating a dynamic contrast between pianist Kevin Cole and the orchestra. The concert also features Richard Strauss’s Don Juan, a symphonic poem depicting the rise and fall of the legendary seducer.
Robert Franz, conductor
