The music of the First Viennese School is ideal for the luminous, transparent sound of the Chamber Orchestra of Europe. In this concert, the ensemble, conducted by Andrew Manze, focuses on the three great composers of the period: Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, whose heroically dramatic Coriolan Overture opens the evening. The pianist Jan Lisiecki, acclaimed for his equally intelligent and insightful interpretations, is the soloist in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s gallant and highly virtuosic “Jenamy” piano concerto. The evening concludes with Joseph Haydn’s eminently elegant Symphony No. 98.
