About This Performance

Be swept away by the romance of Romeo and Juliet in one of Berlioz's finest and most expressive works. Then, fall in love as Nicholas Angelich makes his PSO debut with Johannes Brahms' luxurious and emotional Piano Concerto No. 2. This up-and-coming piano star is praised by The Times for his "subtle inflections of touch and dynamics; that impulsive, improvisatory feel… [Angelich] made me fall in love with the work as if for the first time."
