Kansas City Symphony Classical Concert Romantic Royalty: Tchaikovsky and Chopin

Kansas City Symphony Classical Concert Romantic Royalty: Tchaikovsky and Chopin

Presented by Kansas City Symphony at Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts

Passion and drama reign supreme in this concert with three Romantic-era works. Tchaikovsky considered the “Pathétique” Symphony his very best, stating he “loved it as I have never loved any of my other musical offspring.” Emerging pianist Andrew Tyson stars in Chopin’s Second Piano Concerto, a marvelous display of poetry and fireworks. The second movement gushes with Chopin’s unrequited love for a beautiful soprano while the finale invokes a vibrant mazurka of his native Poland. The overture from Prince Igor launches a procession of regal brass fanfares and king-sized thrills.
