San Diego Symphony presents
DINUR, MONTGOMERY AND THE “CLASSICAL” SYMPHONY
Tickets available exclusively through San Diego Symphony
Yaniv Dinur, conductor
Awadagin Pratt, piano
Guest conductor Yaniv Dinur leads the Orchestra in Prokofiev’s “Classical” Symphony, an audience favorite for its champagne-like energy and effervescence, shot through with an astonishing feeling of boyish wit and joy. The revered pianist Awadagin Pratt performs the celebrated composer Jessie Montgomery’s Rounds, originally conceived for Pratt and based on fractals, the infinite patterns found in nature. (Jessie Montgomery was recently named “Composer of the Year” by Musical America. Follow this link to learn more.) Haydn’s monumental “London” Symphony closes the program.
