8 p.m. start. Short pre-concert recital at 7:15 p.m., followed by a talk about the concert. A piano concerto written in the 1940s by an 18-year-old Canadian composer described as a genius by Sergei Rachmaninoff will receive its Toronto premiere more than 70 years later. Pianist Christina Petrowska Quilico (https://christinapetrowskaquilico.com) joins the Kindred Spirits Orchestra and guest conductor, Czech maestro Ji Petrdlk, in the Piano Concerto No. 4 by Andr Mathieu (1929-68). The program also includes the Symphonic Metamorphosis by Hindemith and Symphony No. 2 by Prokofiev. Rachmaninoff on steroids, is how Ms. Petrowska Quilico describes Mathieus Piano Concerto No. 4. It is challenging to play, but is a very expressive work with lush harmonies that I think will appeal to a wide audience. The pianist also has the benefit of leeway in places for his or her own interpretation.Ms. Petrowska Quilico will take part in a discussion at intermission.
