About This Performance
The Washington Post describes the brilliant musician Emanuel Ax as "an extremely satisfying pianist… always thoughtful, lyrical, lustrous." Ax returns for Mozart's engaging Piano Concerto No. 22 in E-flat major. Renowned violinist Nikolaj Znaider makes his PSO conducting debut with music from Wagner's exquisite love story of Tristan und Isolde. Be amused by Elgar's Enigma Variations, a mystery on many levels with its elusive melody that has had audiences guessing for years and the supposed hidden message to a secret lover. Each movement of this celebrated orchestral work portrays a personal friend of Elgar's.
