Join us in March as the Erie Philharmonic joins forces with two young American virtuosos, pianist Michael Brown and cellist Nicholas Canellakis. Together we will delve into some of the most fascinating repertoire for string orchestra and solo instruments. Canellakis is featured in a prayerful and soaring piece by English composer John Tavener called ‘The Protecting Veil’, while Brown joins the Philharmonic in Ernest Bloch’s tribute the baroque in his lively Concerto Grosso No. 1. We’ll also feature Brown and Canellakis together as they perform music of Beethoven, and round-out the program with a probing and emotional Adagio by American composer Cindy McTee.
