Description
Leonard Bernstein the performer inspires this program. Canadian vistuoso pianist Marika Bournaki joins the Jackson Symphony Orchestra to perform Beethoven's First Piano Concerto, a work that Bernstein played and conducted from the piano. Haydn's whimsical 88th Symphony, which Bernstein famously conducted with his eyebrows, opens the program. Pulitzer Prize winner composer Caroline Shaw's Entr'Acte, a work inspired by Haydn, demonstrates a contemporary take on these two classical masters.
