The Vancouver Symphony Orchestra Musically Speaking presents:
Great Canadian pianist Angela Cheng performs Beethoven’s bold, exciting First Piano Concerto, in a program conducted by Asia’s preeminent young conductor, Darrell Ang. This lush, Romantic concert features two of French composer Claude Debussy’s impressionist masterpieces, Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun, and the gorgeous La Mer. Conducted by Darrell Ang.
The Musically Speaking series takes the mystery out of the music. Conductors take you inside the music with informative, fascinating, sometimes surprising— and always entertaining— commentary from the podium about the composers and their music. Video screens on either side of the stage take you closer to the extraordinary musicians with close-ups of all the action.
