Pianist Roger Wright returns to the Symphony for a World Premiere Performance of an exciting new work for piano and orchestra by Houston-based composer Matthew Mason with a familiar title, Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini. However, this work has a uniquely different twist than Rachmaninoff's! Mason's work is immediately captivating and terrifically exciting from start to finish! Concluding the program will be one of the great English compositions of the 19th century, Sir Edward Elgar's Enigma Variations, his fascinating musical portraits of friends and family. Zoltek's evocative dance inspired Hemispheres will open the concert.
