Mozart & Don Quixote

We went to the Pacific Symphony concert on Saturday.

Listen to Alan Chapman's preview on SoundCloud.

The Saturday night performance will broadcast on Classical KUSC on July 16, 2017.



Can you find the wind machine?





Music director Carl St.Clair conducted with pianist Orli Shaham and cellist Timothy Landauer.

Maurice Ravel:  Alborada del gracioso
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart:  Concerto No. 17 in G Major for Piano and Orchestra, K. 453

Richard Strauss:  Don Quixote, TrV 184, Op. 35



Here's the wind machine, right behind the brass!




KUSC's Rich Capparela gave the pre-concert lecture, along with Orli Shaham.

Orli gave her 5 minute passionate walk-through of the Mozart concerto, and Rich gave his 20 minute walk-through of the 45 minute Don Quixote.  The concert experience becomes super-enriched with these pre-concert talks!  :)


You can sample Orli Shaham's piano (and her brother, Gil's violin) on Amazon!  :)
