How many great works were born of a love story or a deep friendship? Completed 20 years after the composer met Schumann, Brahms’ First Symphony was written with much encouragement from his friend. Schumann’s Piano Concerto, for its part, was penned for the composer’s wife, Clara. With his interpretive refinement, the young pianist Javier Perianes is sure to move you in the performance of this masterpiece!
Serge Garant’s piece is presented as part of the 50th anniversary of the SMCQ and the 2017 MNM Festival.ÀÀSince its creation in 1940, the OSM Manulife Competition has launched close to 350 winners onto Canadian and international stages. Young rising star conductor Vasily Petrenko leads the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal in this program featuring Brahms’s moving First Symphony, a work of Romantic spirit ina classical architecture. A concert full of promise!
