About the Music

Canadian-born conductor Julian Kuerti, one of the BSO’s two assistant conductors, collaborates with the acclaimed Canadian pianist Marc-André Hamelin in Dmitri Shostakovich’s brilliant Piano Concerto No. 1. György Ligeti’s early, Bartók-influenced Concert Românesc is flavored with Romanian folk music. Tchaikovsky’s Little Russian Symphony doesn’t refer to his homeland but rather to a part of the Ukraine then known as “Little Russia.” The symphony’s nickname comes from the Ukrainian folk melodies used in the piece.
