Presented by the renowned Beethoven virtuoso Emanuel Ax, you will hear some of the earliest-known music by the composer, the Piano Concerto No. 2. A signature piece for Michael Tilson Thomas, Berg’s spellbinding Three Pieces for Orchestra is a revival of recent performances issued on the Orchestra’s in-house label, the eight-time Grammy Award-winning SFS Media.
