Keith Lockhart
Guest Conducting
Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra (Buffalo, New York): November 20-21, 2021
Keith conducts the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra (BPO) with Virtuoso Philippe Quint on Samuel Barber’s romantic, reflective, and storied violin concerto, while contemporary composer Gabriela Frank’s homage to her South American heritage was distinctly influenced by Bernstein’s Symphonic Dances. Dvořák’s American Suite was originally written for piano while the composer was on a U.S. visit. The program concludes with George Gershwin’s iconic, jazz-infused, epic love letter to the City of Light.
Czech Philharmonic (Prague, Czech Republic): June 15-17, 2022
Keith conducts music of Antonín Dvořák, Gershwin, Copland, and Ellington in Prague with pianist Marc-André Hamelin
