Pictures at an Exhibition - Masterworks Series 1 (Burlington)
Advertisement
Our fall Masterworks concert features Pictures at an Exhibition, one of the most beloved pieces in the entire orchestral repertoire - and for good reason. Respighi's Fountains of Rome opens the evening with some of the most vivid orchestral writing you will ever hear, paired with the sweeping beauty of Spencer Myer performing Grieg's Piano Concerto.
