TSO Chief Conductor and Artistic Director Eivind Aadland is joined by superstar French pianist Cédric Tiberghien and ANAM musicians.
French pianist Cédric Tiberghien performs Ravel’s Concerto for the Left Hand — written for pianist Paul Wittgenstein, who lost his right arm in World War I. The work’s dark tones and jazz-inflected rhythms reveal Ravel’s ingenuity under constraint.
The concert opens with the composer’s gentle Pavane pour une infante défunte, a nostalgic tribute to an imagined Spanish princess, and closes with Mahler’s Symphony No. 1, the “Titan”, its orchestral writing captures both the freshness of youth and the drama of becoming.
