Saint-Saëns & Bizet
January 28 – 31, 2021
Fabio Luisi conducts
Alessandro Taverna piano
SAINT-SAËNS Piano Concerto No. 2 in G minor
BIZET Symphony in C majorÂ
Fabio Luisi conducts the DSO in a program that features Alessandro Taverna in Saint-Saëns Piano Concerto No. 2 in G minor.
The concert also features Bizet’s exuberantly youthful Symphony in C major. Penned when Bizet was only 17 years of age and never performed during his lifetime, his charming first symphony in C Major is his most popular work outside of the opera house and moved the great George Balanchine so greatly that he choreographed an entire ballet to the colorful gem.
