Brahms / Tchaikovsky
Presented by Colorado Springs Philharmonic at Pikes Peak Center for the Performing Arts Colorado Springs, CO
Think a piano can’t roar like an orchestra? Brahms’ Second Concerto proves otherwise—epic in scale, thunderous in power, yet tender in its most lyrical moments. Tchaikovsky’s Francesca da Rimini plunges into Dante’s whirlwind of forbidden love and despair, music as fevered as it is heartbreaking.
