THIS WEEKEND! Philadelphia Orchestra gets political sort of
Call it the orchestra’s all-American election special, open to democrats, republicans and communists. The music of Barber, Gershwin and Copland is familiar to most ears, but the excellent music of Puerto-Rican born Roberto Sierra may be a revelation. This will be the local premiere of his Sinfonia No. 4. The soloist in the Gershwin Piano Concerto in F will be Kirill Gerstein, who, appropriately for this music, has dual careers in the classical and jazz worlds.
