Described by The Washington Post as “a seasoned phenomenon,” Armenian cellist Narek Hakhnazaryan joins the orchestra under the direction of conductor Peter Oundjian for a performance of Dvorak’s stunning “Cello Concerto in B Minor.” The concert opens by marking the centennial of the birth of one of the greatest composers of the 20th century, Leonard Bernstein, with a performance of Three Dance Variations from “Fancy Free” and closes with Béla Bartók’s vibrant Concerto for Orchestra – a piece that showcases the expressive power of the modern orchestra, as well as his signature use of Hungarian folk music.
