Let the Charleston Symphony take you on a journey to the early 20th century with music inspired by American jazz and the beauty of Rome. To say Rome inspired the Italian composer Ottorino Respighi would be an understatement. His poetic reverence for the “Eternal City’s” fountains and trees is captured flawlessly in his Fountains of Rome and Pines of Rome. Following the success of Rhapsody in Blue, George Gershwin tackled his most significant undertaking for orchestra—his Piano Concerto. Pianist Maxim Lando, who last performed with the Charleston Symphony in 2024, will be the guest pianist on this piece.
More on the Music and Artists:
• In a concert review, The New York Times wrote, “Maxim Lando displayed brilliance and infectious exuberance.”
• Ming Luke is the Music Director for the Nashville Ballet and Principal Guest Conductor of the San Francisco Ballet.
• Gershwin said, about his Piano Concerto, “Many persons had thought that the Rhapsody was only a happy accident. Well, I went out, for one thing, to show them that there was plenty more where that had come from.”
