About the program: Transfigured Nights includes a mix of transcribers that were either the composers themselves, friends of the composers, or admirers. Three works in particular—Beethoven’s Ghost Trio, Schoenberg’s Transfigured Night, and Wallin’s Magical Realities—explore the realm of the supernatural through musical transformation. These works are aptly paired with a transcription of Shostakovich’s last symphony.
