Hear the
Grammy-Award winning ensemble play with the pianist The
Observer described as the “definition of virtuosity” one
night before they perform it in Carnegie Hall, right here in the
Museum’s intimate Bickford Theatre!
In the spring
of 2020 when the pandemic took hold and concert venues were closing
their doors, the Morris Museum opened its parking lot with The Lot of
Strings Festival and jazz concerts. During this festival, the famed
Orpheus Chamber Orchestra performed multiple times and a special
relationship was born. Now the relationship culminates in an evening
featuring the full orchestra and guest soloist, Turkish pianist,
Fazil Say.
Say joins the
orchestra for two selection—his own Silk Road Piano
Concerto No. 2, Op. 4, in which he shares his own musical exploration
of the legendary Silk Road and Turkey’s role in this fascinating
chapter of history—and Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 23 in A Major,
K. 488, composed in his heyday in Vienna. These selections, chosen
very deliberately, are a symbol of reunion and musical friendship;
Orpheus and Say last collaborated in 2015 and 2016 Carnegie Hall
together, with performances declared to be “all exuberance”
by The New York Times.
