Orpheus Chamber Orchestra: Spinning Silk – with Fazil Say, piano

• Fazıl Say, piano

Fazıl Say — Piano Concerto No. 2, Op. 4 "Silk Road"
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart — Piano Concerto No. 23 in A major, K. 488
Christopher Theofanidis — Chamber Symphony No. 1 in D major (after Tchaikovsky’s String Quartet, Op. 11)

The Turkish composer-pianist Fazıl Say joins Orpheus Chamber Orchestra to perform his own “Silk Road”, navigating his homeland’s place at the intersection of the West and the East, and a Mozart concerto that channels a fellow composer-pianist. Rounding out the program is Chamber Symphony No. 1, arranged for Orpheus by Christopher Theofanidis, propelled by dance rhythms and folksongs after Tchaikovsky’s First String Quartet.
