Kansas City Symphony Presents Stravinsky’s Firebird, Alisa Weilerstein plays Dvorak

This is the “must-attend” Classical series concert of the season as Matthias Pintscher begins his tenure as music director of the Kansas City Symphony!
Born in South Korea and now living in Berlin, Unsuk Chin is a superbly creative composer. She was commissioned to write a brief piece celebrating the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth and subito con forza (“suddenly with force”) was the result. Filtering themes and patterns from some of Beethoven’s best-known music through Chin’s dramatic voice, subito con forza honors Beethoven’s genius from a uniquely 21st-century perspective.
Friday September 13th and Saturday September 14th at 8:00 PM. Sunday September 15th at 2:00 PM.
