Program
CONRAD TAO Spoonfuls for Piano and Orchestra (East Coast Premiere)
SHOSTAKOVICH Symphony No. 9
TCHAIKOVSKY Piano Concerto No. 1

Since Conrad Tao’s New Jersey Symphony appearance four seasons ago, his career has exploded: he’s written music for the New York Philharmonic, performed all over the world and earned a huge spread in The New York Times. He plays his own playful Spoonfuls and Tchaikovsky’s big-shouldered First, with Shostakovich’s lighthearted Ninth between.
