Why see Colorado Symphony Orchestra - Rachmaninoff's 3rd Piano Concerto with Garrick Ohlsson & Rune Bergmann?
Star Pianist And Scandinavian Heart
Join the Colorado Symphony Orchestra for a program full of Scandinavian heart, headlined by guest pianist Garrick Ohlsson, American born with Swedish blood running through his veins, as he fearlessly tackles Rachmaninoff's Third Piano Concerto! Known for its technical challenges and deep emotional core, this masterpiece is the ultimate test for any pianist, but proves no difficulty for Ohlsson, who is the perfect fit to bring alive the drama, conflict, and tension of Rachmaninoff's favourite concerto.
Elsewhere on the bill, continuing the spirit of the Nords, conductor Rune Bergmann taps into his own Norwegian heritage to bring the audience a magnificent performance of Johan Svendsen's folk-influenced Norwegian Artists' Carnival while the First Symphony from Finland's Jean Sibelius brings further Nordic atmosphere to precedings. An inspiring and energizing concert!
