    SunTrust Classical Series presents Penderecki Comes to Nashville featuring Nashville Symphony, Krzysztof Penderecki, conductor, Barry Douglas, piano, and Roger Wiesmeyer, english horn.

    Penderecki: Adagietto from Paradise Lost for English Horn and String Orchestra Shostakovich: Symphony No. 6 in B minor, Op. 54 Penderecki: Concerto for Piano “Resurrection”. 

    One of the most innovative figures in classical music today, Polish composer and conductor Krzysztof Penderecki is world-renowned for his boldly resonant music, which is rich with layers of rhythm and texture. He makes a rare visit to Nashville to lead a specially chosen program that includes his own Concerto for Piano. With a remarkable scope that recalls the symphonies of Mahler, but rendered in Penderecki’s singular voice, the work will feature the gifted pianist Barry Douglas. In Shostakovich’s alternatively contemplative and lively Symphony No. 6, the Russian composer sought to convey “the moods of spring, joy, youth.”
