KC Symphony, André Watts preview with Michael Stern

Celebrated pianist André Watts joins Michael Stern and the Symphony for Rachmaninoff's dazzling Second Piano Concerto. Originally written as a string quartet, Beethoven's Grosse Fuge has been called the "wildest, grandest fuge ever composed." Completely deaf when he composed it, Beethoven's Grosse Fuge is an energetic, introspective and powerful work. The Fourth Symphony of Bohuslav Martinù is an optimistic, radiant work filled with vigor and lush melodies.
