DUKAS  Fanfare from La PériDEBUSSY  La MerBEETHOVEN  Piano Concerto No. 5, “Emperor”
Start your season with an evening that truly feels like an occasion. JoAnn Falletta welcomes Lang Lang for Beethoven’s “Emperor” Concerto, pairing regal scale with brilliant virtuosity and a singing, generous spirit. Dukas opens with a radiant fanfare, and Debussy’s La Mer fills the hall with shifting color and atmosphere. It is a program designed to lift you out of the everyday and into a shared moment, where the first downbeat settles the room and the season begins in full glow.
