MSO: Tchaikovsky and Copland

Join us in welcoming our new Music Director, Nicholas Hersh! In his debut concert, Hersh will open the evening with Mozart’s bustling and energetic Overture to The Marriage of Figaro. He will then be joined by pianist Alessio Bax for Tchaikovsky’s virtuosic Piano Concerto No. 1. The evening will conclude with Copland’s Symphony No. 3. This symphony brings out the lyrical sounds of Americana that Copland is so known for and will flow into the finale which opens with the theme from his own triumphant Fanfare for the Common Man. This concert will be a celebration of music and the start of a new era for the Modesto Symphony Orchestra.
