May 23
Esa-Pekka Salonen & Yuja Wang

Esa-Pekka Salonen takes the podium for Debussy’s Images, a work that outlines a vivid realm of ancient dances, sun-splashed Spanish ballads, and intoxicating orchestral colors. Yuja Wang brings her dramatic flair and interpretive finesse to two piano concertos: Maurice Ravel’s dark and intense Piano Concerto for the Left Hand and Einojuhani Rautavaara’s post-modern Piano Concerto No. 1.
