JoAnn Falletta, conductor
Kenneth Broberg, piano
BEETHOVEN Piano Concerto No. 3
STRAUSS Ein Heldenleben, “A Hero’s Life”
The season concludes with a powerful pairing of Beethoven and Strauss, under the skilled direction of JoAnn Falletta. Kenneth Broberg, celebrated for his profound musical insight and technical mastery, performs Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 3, a work of deep emotional resonance that showcases the composer’s revolutionary spirit. The concert culminates with Strauss’s Ein Heldenleben, a grandiose tone poem that offers a complex, autobiographical portrait of the composer himself. This piece, with its vast orchestral forces and dramatic themes, provides a fitting close to a season of exceptional music-making. The program promises an evening of reflection on personal and artistic heroism, exploring the themes of challenge, triumph, and the artist’s role in society.
