SYNOPSIS:

Utah Symphony
WILSON: Shango Memory
GRIEG: Piano Concerto
R. SCHUMANN: Symphony No. 1, “Spring”
Acclaimed pianist Orion Weiss returns to the Utah Symphony with Grieg’s only piano concerto—a playful and passionate masterpiece packed with fiery moments, gorgeous melodies, and a Norwegian folk-inspired finale that never fails to thrill.
Under the baton of Anja Bihlmaier, making her Utah Symphony debut, the evening begins with Olly Wilson’s Shango Memory, a powerful tribute to the Nigerian god of thunder that weaves together African and American musical traditions.
The concert reaches its grand finale with Schumann’s “Spring” Symphony, where optimism and renewal bloom in every note. Inspired by the promise of the blossoming season (and a little encouragement from his wife Clara), Schumann’s symphony is the perfect burst of springtime energy no matter the time of year.
