National Symphony Orchestra

Concert Hall at John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Washington, DC, United States

$17-$119

Alexandra Dovgan, piano
Marek Janowski, conductor

Robert Schumann — Piano Concerto in A minor, Op. 54
Anton Bruckner — Symphony No. 4 in E-flat major, WAB 104 "Romantic"

A "revelation" at the 2018 Grand Piano Competition where she stormed to victory at the age of 10, Alexandra Dovgan has become a teenage piano phenomenon with sold-out concerts worldwide. Witness her extraordinary talent in a performance of Schumann's masterwork, considered the ultimate romantic piano concerto. Marek Janowski, who in 2019 "conducted a truly memorable… exquisite rendition of Bruckner’s Seventh" (Washington Classical Review), returns to lead the composer's shimmering Symphony No. 4. Two powerhouses, one program—certainly a concert to remember.

Runs Nov 21-23.
