Overview

Painter of Sound: Hommage à Ravel

Robert Henry, Piano

An exciting season opener featuring the elegant, dynamic, and sumptuous music of French composer Maurice Ravel, in a sesquicentennial celebration of his birth. The NMSO welcomes the return of pianist Robert Henry to perform the brilliant, jazz-influenced Concerto in G Major. The orchestra is featured in the gorgeous Le Tombeau de Couperin, with each of its four movements dedicated to the memory of a friend of the composer who died fighting in World War I, and the powerful Pictures at an Exhibition, composed by Modest Mussorgsky and given a brilliant orchestration by Ravel.
