Fusao Kajima, conductor
Valentina Lisitsa, piano
VILLA-LOBOS Sinfonietta No. 1 (A memória de Mozart)
GRIEG Piano Concerto
DVOØÁK Symphony No. 8
Though Grieg’s romantic concerto was written in a cold climate, its beautiful melding of virtuosity and lyricism—and echoes of Norwegian folk music—will not only melt your heart, but dazzle you, too. . . especially when it’s in the hands of our stunning soloist who has garnered raves around the world. Fusao Kajima and the ASO then present Dvoøák’s beloved score, inspired by nature and overflowing with joyful melodies.
