 Thomas Adès leads an evening of Russian masterworks alongside a US premiere piece and one of his own works.
Thomas Adès returns to Walt Disney Concert Hall to conduct Tchaikovsky’s orchestral collage of trickery, tragedy, and turbulent love. Inspired by Dante’s Divine Comedy, Francesca da Rimini?whips and whirls its listeners around on a hurricane-like adventure, from the ominous winds and basses that introduce the piece to the ferocious brass and cymbals that bring it all to an evocative finale.
Yuja Wang, one of today’s greatest pianists, also returns with Prokofiev’s Second Piano Concerto. On this piece especially, she is “unrelentingly excellent, building sinister tension like a scientist” (The Mercury News). Adès bookends the performance with William Marsey’s symphonic interpretation of Man with Limp Wrist—an oil painting of the same name by Salman Toor—and the conductor’s own fast-moving and mysterious Aquifer.
