Los Angeles Philharmonic
Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony
Joseph PEREIRA: Percussion Concerto (LA Phil commission)
Pre-concert lecture at 7pm by KUSC's Brian Lauritzen.
Fate always finds a way! Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony opens with a fate motif in the woodwinds and low strings, making its way through the orchestra only to be interrupted by a rich and tender horn solo. The fate motif returns to meet its triumphant and dramatic brassy ending. Plus, a special performance of Joseph Pereira’s Percussion Concerto.
