Overview
The Fantastic Symphony
Witness the wonder of an orchestra pushed to the limits of sonic imagination when Berlioz transforms the symphony into a maniacal paean to obsessive love. Working in the same fantastical vein in our own century, the modern British legend Jonathan Harvey conjures a mystical world without suffering. Pianist Stewart Goodyear’s lightning-fast left hand and composer/conductor Matthias Pintscher’s perceptive leadership make a perfect pair in Ravel’s sizzling showcase for a war-scarred patron.
