CSO at Wheaton: Trifonov Plays Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 3

Apr 21, 2023

Overview

“Peerless today as a Rachmaninov interpreter” (The Guardian) and in possession of “monstrous technique and lustrous tone” (The New Yorker), pianist Daniil Trifonov performs Rachmaninov’s electrifying Third Piano Concerto with the CSO, conducted by Fabien Gabel. Russian folklore animates Stravinsky’s magical world of Petrushka and Liadov’s dark and fantastical Kikimora.

Ticket holders are invited to a free preconcert conversation featuring Kyle Dzapo in Amerding Concert Hall 75 minutes before the performance. The conversation will last approximately 30 minutes. No additional tickets required.
