Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra - The Lover and the Rascal

Post A Gig : The Lover and the Rascal Sat 31 Aug 2013 | 8.30pm Sun 1 Sep 2013 | 3.00pm Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra Claus Peter Flor conductor Robert Levin piano Ya-Fei Chuang piano R. STRAUSS Don Juan MOZART Concerto for Two Pianos POULENC Concerto for Two Pianos R. STRAUSS Till Eulenspiegel It is not often we get to hear a concerto for two pianos. This program doubles the pleasure – we hear two concertos each requiring four hands. Mozart’s concerto is probably the best-known example of this type, followed by one written by Poulenc nearly two centuries later and inspired by both gamelan music and Mozart. Framing the concertos, we hear two of Richard Strauss’s most popular tone poems, one depicting a legendary lover, the other a rambunctious rascal. http://www.mpo.com.my/Upcoming-Performances/Following-Concerts/The-Lover-and-the-Rascal.aspx?perfname=The%20Lover%20and%20the%20Rascal&docid=3195
