"Joie de vivre, gaiety, brilliance": Shostakovich's Ninth
The Seattle Philharmonic has garnered enthusiastic renown for presenting Halloween-imbued concerts like no other orchestra. Our season opener will conclude with a suite of music from classic horror films from the 40s and 50s, as well as magician/illusionist Matthew Laslo sharing his wizardry accompanied by music specially written and arranged for him by Music Director Adam Stern. Adding to the program’s luster will be a celebration of the 80th anniversary of Dmitri Shostakovich’s Symphony No 9 (premiered November 3, 1945), and the U. S. premiere of Greek-New Zealander composer Briar Prastiti’s Ákri. Aaron Copland’s festive Outdoor Overture will begin this gala concert.

Getting to hear music from little-known composers was a treat. I really enjoyed the rhythms of some of the pieces. A well chosen program!

I always leave the performances enlightened by new music I have never heard. It is a friendly, laid back environment and a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon.
