Conductor and pianist Jeffrey Kahane leads the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra in a performance featuring Mozart's dramatic 38th Symphony "Prague," which premiered in that city in 1787. That work is paired with the world premiere of the LACO-commissioned Mar de Setembro (September Sea) by Derek Bermel, accompanied by Luciana Souza's luscious vocals. Margaret Batjer's violin is highlighted in the opening piece, Mendelssohn's joyous Double Concerto in D Minor.

Description

On January 19, 1787, the sweeping panoramic views and eclectic architecture of Prague set the backdrop for the highly-anticipated premiere of Mozart’s 38th Symphony.

Jeffrey Kahane and concertmaster Margaret Batjer start off the evening with Mendelssohn’s joyful Double Concerto, demonstrating the camaraderie intrinsic to the LACO experience.
