Berlioz and Ravel - UnderScore Friday

Boston Symphony Orchestra

Boston Symphony Hall Boston MA

$32.00 - $120.00

This performance is an UnderScore Friday event and will feature Jessica Zhou, BSO harpist, who will speak from the stage at the start of this program. A complimentary reception after the show will follow.

French pianist Cédric Tiberghien makes his BSO debut with Ravel's scintillating Piano Concerto in G. German conductor Christoph Eschenbach leads these concerts, which begin and end with Berlioz. Opening the program is the fantastical overture to the composer's picaresque Italian Renaissance opera Benvenuto Cellini. Closing the program is Berlioz's most famous work, the Symphonie fantastique, which traces the evolution of an artist's feverish romantic obsession with a woman who does not respond in kind.
