Juilliard-trained pianist Stewart Goodyear joins the CSO to perform Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 3. Perhaps the most technically challenging piano concerto ever written, this virtuosic piece is fiendishly hard to play, visually stunning to watch, and represents the height of classical music’s romantic era. While Rachmaninoff performed this piece a number of times, many of his contemporaries never attempted to play it, perhaps for fear of being compared to Rachmaninoff himself.
Repertoire:
Johannes Brahms (1883-1897)
Symphony. No. 3
Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943)
Piano Concerto No. 3
