Mozart & Grieg

Conducted by Norman Huynh
April 1 & 3, 2027 7:30 PM

About The Concert

Canadian pianist and ESO audience-favourite Jaeden Izik-Dzurko performs Grieg's popular Piano Concerto, the only one the prolific composer completed. Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik and "Prague" Symphony were composed at the same time in his life, but are contrasted in instrumentation and style.

Also, explore the spectrum of light, dark, and the murkiness between them in Nina Shekhar's Lumina.

This concert will include an intermission.
