Feel the pull of fate, the thrill of the unexpected, and the sheer force of sound wash through you. What begins as suspense will give way to a feeling of being fully alive.
Yaniv Dinur, conductor
Sydney Lee, cello
Silvestre Revueltas: Sensemayá
Antonín Dvořák: Cello Concerto
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 4
Marking his 10th season with the NBSO, Yaniv returns to his audition piece that got him the job—Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 4. Opening with the “fate” motif, the eternal ballet composer’s most original symphony consists of numerous surprises, like an entire movement of just string plucking, cymbals and bass drum only in the last movement (making so much noise) and an unhinged piccolo solo, to name just a few. Sydney Lee returns to the NBSO to perform Dvořák’s Cello Concerto, the Mount Everest of the cello repertoire. We open our season with Revueltas’ stirring Sensemayá, or as Yaniv likes to call it: “the Latin version of The Rite of Spring in seven minutes.”
