VIOLINIST PHILIPPE QUINT RETURNS TO PACIFIC SYMPHONY WITH TCHAIKOVSKY’S DELIGHTFUL VIOLIN CONCERTO, CONDUCTED BY RUNE BERGMANN

Date:

November 13, 2018

Two spectacular guest artists from seasons past return to Pacific Symphony: Rune Bergmann, the acclaimed Norwegian conductor, joined the Symphony last October with Rachmaninoff’s formidable Symphony No. 2; and Philippe Quint, the Russian violinist described by BBC Music Magazine as “truly phenomenal.”

Quint joins Pacific Symphony under Bergmann’s baton to perform Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto, in a program bookended by the Overture to Mozart’s “Don Giovanni,” and Nielson’s Symphony No. 4, “The Inextinguishable,” a piece composed against the backdrop of the first World War.

“Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto” takes place Thursday through Saturday, Nov. 15-17, at 8 p.m. in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall; doors open at 6:45 p.m. Single tickets start at $29. A preview talk with Alan Chapman begins at 7 p.m. For more information or to purchase tickets, please call (714) 755-5799 or visit www.PacificSymphony.org.
