Pacific Symphony Orchestra to Honor Bach, Beethoven & Bartok, 3/1
by Matt Smith - Feb 20, 2015


Orange County, Calif.—Feb. 19, 2015—Enjoy the ever-progressing capabilities of music by “Bach, Beethoven and Bart?k” in the second concert of Pacific Symphony's 2014-15 Café Ludwig chamber series, which explores music written at the early, middle and late periods of a composer's life. Led by charismatic pianist and host Orli Shaham, this year's series features the Symphony's Principal Cellist Timothy Landauer performing three of Beethoven's Cello Sonatas over the course of the season. For this concert, Landauer's cello shines in equal interplay with Shaham's piano during the Cello Sonata No. 3, a work full of serene emotion. The concert opens with Bach's Trio Sonata for Two Flutes and Piano, which features a genius display of counterpoint played by Principal Flutist Benjamin Smolen and flutist Sharon O'Connor. Guest pianist Peter Henderson joins the Symphony musicians for Bart?k's Concerto for Two Pianos and Percussion, playing alongside Shaham, Principal Timpanist Todd Miller and Principal Percussionist Robert Slack. Bartók's piece is an aural exploration of his fascination with the piano as a percussion instrument.
