Two of the most beloved pieces of Russian music, together on one concert. Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade portrays the alluring stories – and storyteller – of 1001 Nights. Tchaikovsky’s first piano concerto, rejected by its first pianist, found enormous success after its premiere in America. Pianist Conrad Tao, not yet 21, has been hailed as a “ferociously talented” musician of “probing intellect and open-hearted vision.”
