Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, Portland, OR, United States

$25-$128

Jeffrey Kahane, piano
Carlos Kalmar, conductor

Elena Kats-Chernin — Big Rhap

Robert Schumann — Symphony No. 4 in D minor, Op. 120
Franz Liszt — Hungarian Rhapsody No. 1 in C-sharp minor/E major, S. 244, No. 1

A work of searing drama and intensity, Schumann's Fourth Symphony charts an emotional journey to rapturous joy in one uninterrupted flow of achingly romantic music. Plus, Jeffrey Kahane mixes operatic lyricism with the playful intimacy of chamber music in Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 22, a work that "flows from Kahane's hands as refreshingly as water from a crystalline spring" (LA Times).

Runs Mar. 15-17.
