SOI Chamber Orchestra & Olga Kern, piano
Wednesday, December 4, 2024 at 7:00PM
TATA Theatre, NCPA
SOI Chamber Orchestra
Jeroen Weierink, conductor
Olga Kern, piano
An NCPA Presentation in collaboration with MMMF
The SOI Chamber Orchestra and Olga Kern will present Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto No.1 in C minor, Op.35 featuring piano, trumpet and strings. The concerto exudes a topical, light, humorous, satirical, and eclectic personality, at moments reminiscent of a silent movie chase scene or a circus sideshow. Initially set out to be a trumpet concerto, the piano took precedence, with the trumpet playing a prominent but secondary role.
