    SunTrust Classical Series presents A Musical Space Odyssey featuring Nashville Symphony, Giancarlo Guerrero, conductor, and Yefim Bronfman, piano. 

    Miguel del Aguila: World Premiere Bartók : Concerto for Piano No. 2 György Ligeti: Atmosphères R. Strauss: Also Sprach Zarathustra, TrV 176, Op. 30

    We pay tribute to two unforgettable pieces of music featured in Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Györgi Ligeti’s Atmosphères is a gripping exploration of orchestral sonority, while Strauss’ Also Sprach Zarathustra is surely one of the best-known pieces in all of classical music, thanks to its memorable appearance in the opening sequence of Kubrick’s film. GRAMMY®-winning pianist Yefim Bronfman returns to perform Bartók’s Piano Concerto No. 2, a work noted for its fireworks at the keyboard and its brilliantly conceived orchestration. Hailed for his fresh, inventive compositions, Miguel del Aguila draws on the music of his Latin American heritage while honoring classical tradition and form.
