Conductor Nil Venditti leads QSO through a program of bold contrasts and vibrant textures.

At its heart is Copland’s Clarinet Concerto, performed by Section Principal Irit Silver, a work of spacious lyricism and jazzy rhythmic drive.

The concert also features playful gems from Bernstein and Gershwin, two jubilant movements from Tchaikovsky’s Polish Symphony, a world premiere from QSO Compose alumnus Jonathan Platz, and more.
