Tchaikovsky's Pathétique at NAC Southam Hall

Astounding audiences and winning multiple international competitions including the 2011 Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow, pianist Daniil Trifonov makes his NAC Orchestra debut with Liszt’s demanding First Piano Concerto, a work premiered by Liszt himself with Berlioz conducting. Tchaikovsky’s heart-wrenching Pathétique Symphony, premiered days before the composer’s untimely death, contains a palate of emotions expressing the joy of life to a poignant farewell. Maestro Zukerman undertakes this powerful work for the first time before NAC Orchestra audiences.
