Performers
Orpheus Chamber Orchestra
Garrick Ohlsson, Piano

Orpheus Chamber Orchestra welcomes back Garrick Ohlsson to perform Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 9, “Jeunehomme.” Mozart melded styles from near and far to redefine the concerto genre. Brahms mined Handel (and Bach and Beethoven) to craft what he later called his “favorite work,” the Variations and Fugue on a Theme by Handel. Composer and five-time Grammy winner Billy Childs infuses classical traditions with his jazz roots in a new work for Orpheus.
