Masterworks I
“Vibrant, daring, intellectually curious.”
We kick off the Masterworks Season on November 8 with a fiery display of musicianship from Canadian pianist Janina Fialkowsa, joining the orchestra for Beethoven’s iconic Piano Concerto No. 4. The concert opens with Symphony in C Major, a work by Mozart Contemporary Carl P. Stamitz and a gem from the classical era, and concludes with Symphony No. 3 by Louise Farrenc, whose musical language is steeped in Romantic French tradition.

In Paris she studied with Yvonne Lefébure and in New York at the Juilliard School with Sascha Gorodnitzki, experiencing the best of both French and Russian piano traditions.
