From the Royal Albert Hall in London to Carnegie Hall in New York, the young Romanian pianist Alexandra Dariescu, has dazzled audiences worldwide with her effortless musicality and captivating stage presence.
Conductor Mei-Ann Chen, praised for her passionate conducting style, leads the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra in the Florida premiere of Shades of Unbroken Dreams, by Orlando favorite James Lee III.
Join the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra at Dr. Phillips Center – Steinmetz Hall for this classic series presentation on Saturday February 24, and Saturday, February 25. Tickets are available now.
This new concerto for piano and orchestra will feature pianist Alexandra Dariescu and honors the 60th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr’s “I have a Dream” speech. Bookending the Concerto is Emilie Mayer’s Overture, whose Romantic vocabulary explores Faust’s searching, questing soul and leads into the beautiful conclusion of our concert, Brahms’s Third, often called his most personal symphony.
