    SunTrust Classical Series presents Andre Watts Plays Beethoven featuring Nashville Symphony, Giancarlo Guerrero, conductor, and André Watts, piano.

    Tchaikovsky - Romeo and Juliet Overture-Fantasy
    Bernstein - Symphonic Dances from West Side Story
    Beethoven - Concerto for Piano No. 5 in E-flat major, Op. 73 "Emperor"

    Beethoven’s fifth concerto is the composer’s final work in the genre, a grand summation of his writing for piano and orchestra. Marked by energetic, sparkling passages and a second movement of uncommon beauty, this piece will feature the world-renowned soloist André Watts. The evening opens with two pieces inspired by Shakespeare’s beloved romantic tragedy Romeo and Juliet: Tchaikovsky’s Overture-Fantasy is best known for its soaring, achingly beautiful love theme, while Leonard Bernstein’s Symphonic Dances is a lively adaptation of his music from West Side Story.
