Program

Anna ClyneThis Midnight Hour
Prokofiev Violin Concerto No. 1
Mussorgsky/Ravel Pictures at an Exhibition

About

In 1874, Modest Mussorgsky attended an art show presented in memory of his friend, the artist Viktor Hartmann—it knocked him sideways. Returning home, he wrote a set of commemorative piano pieces, each representing a different work of art. It was a touching tribute. But it took a master orchestrator to make those paintings bloom. In 1922, Maurice Ravel infused Mussorgsky’s pieces with his unrivaled genius for orchestral color, and the rest is history. 

Hear one of the most popular orchestral showpieces of all time, Pictures at an Exhibition, rendered by the virtuosic players of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. Guest conductor Han-Na Chang makes her ASO debut along with violin soloist Sayaka Shoji. The program includes the sassy Violin Concerto No. 1 by Prokofiev and Anna Clyne’s This Midnight Hour.

The city of Atlanta has a rich arts history, and it also has a rich history of civil rights activism. Throughout the city, you can find wonderful street art, such as this mural, “We Shall Always March Ahead”, by @artofyungai. It is important to celebrate these civil rights legends, but it is also important to continue the fight for equality. Take some time to explore the rich history of the city and the beautiful street art that surrounds us. #RalphDavidAbernathy #HoseaWilliams #MartinLutherKingJr. #CorettaScottKing #JohnLewis #StreetArt #Mural #WeShallAlwaysMarchAhead #lovemyASO #AtlantaSymphonyOrchestra #Atlanta #weloveATL #AtlantaMusic #ExploreAtl #ExploreGeorgia #ClassicalMusic #singer #symphony #orchestra
