CARLOS SIMON Fate Now Conquers
BEETHOVEN Piano Concerto No. 4
RIMSKY-KORSAKOV Scheherazade
The Washington Post describes the artistry of Emanuel Ax as “thoughtful, lyrical, lustrous.” Emanuel Ax performs Beethoven’s magnificent Third Piano Concerto. “He has long been, and continues to be, one of the finest American pianists.” says The New York Times.
This concert was recorded in March of 2025 in Kodak Hall, Rochester, NY. It will be rebroadcast October 20, 2025 at 8:00pm.
Broadcast of RPO Concerts on WXXI Classical is made possible in part by a gift in loving memory of Lenore Lesser and by a grant from Dr. Ralph Jozefowicz, honoring classical music in Rochester.
