SUMMARY:Winter Music Festival: Shostakovich & Prokofiev
DESCRIPTION:January 15 & 16 | 7:30PM\nOhio Theatre  \nRossen Milanov\, conductor\nDmitry Shishkin\, piano  \nPaola Prestini: My Brilliant Friend: Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay\nProkofiev: Concerto No. 3 in C Major for Piano and Orchestra\, Op. 26\nShostakovich: Symphony No. 5 in D Minor\, Op. 47  \nMusic Director Rossen Milanov brings back the Winter Music Festival with stunning works by Soviet-era masters to warm up a cold January night. The “electrifying and flamboyant” Dmitry Shishkin performs Prokofiev’s witty Third Piano Concerto\, called “the most beautiful modern concerto for piano” when it premiered in 1921. Shostakovich’s popular Fifth Symphony begins with an icy and mysterious theme in the first movement and ends with a powerful and (seemingly) triumphant D-major finale. The concert opens with a new co-commissioned work by Paola Prestini\, a composer “known for pushing the boundaries of classical music” (Wall Street Journal) with music that is “otherworldly…outright gorgeous” (New York Times).   \nEnjoy a free pre-talk concert at 6:30PM that dives into the music you’ll hear that evening! There is no assigned seating during the pre-concert talk. \nThe Columbus Symphony uses Steinway Pianos generously furnished by Graves Piano. \nPreview this program with our Spotify playlist:

SUMMARY:Strauss & Dvořák
DESCRIPTION:January 21 | 7:30PM\nSouthern Theatre  \nElias Miller\, conductor \nR. Strauss: Suite in B-flat Major for Thirteen Wind Instruments\, Op. 4\nSam Wu: Along the Pacific Flyway\nDvořák: Serenade in D Minor\, Op. 44 \nJoin Assistant Conductor Elias Miller for a charming chamber music performance. Dvořák’s Serenade for Winds\, reminiscent of his Slavonic Dances\, evokes the atmosphere of an old-World castle. Richard Strauss’s intimate suite for thirteen wind instruments is an early work from the master who would become known for epic tone poems and operas. Rising star composer Sam Wu writes music that “abounds in delicate colours\, wisps of sound and sylvan textures” (Gramophone).   \nPreview this program with our Spotify playlist:
