Jeffrey Kahane, conductor
Jon Kimura Parker, piano

John Harbison Gli accordi piú usati (“The Most Often Used Chords”) listen
Dvořák  Serenade in E major for Strings, Op. 22 listen
Beethoven  Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat major, Op. 73, “Emperor” listen

Romp through scales and chords with Harbison’s “charming spoof of pedantic rudimentary musical instructions.” (The New York Times) Commissioned by LACO in 1993, it is “full of cheeky fun-some parts…and a few places that make you laugh.” (The Boston Globe)

Jon Kimura Parker adventurer both in music and in life, brings his powerful playing to the “Emperor” Concerto, the final and grandest of Beethoven’s five piano concertos. A glorious vehicle for the talents of our LACO musicians, the lyrical and tuneful Dvořák adds to the joy of the program.

Jon Kimura Parker “displayed flawless techniques and overactive fingers in the fast movements…[he] gave a sensitive reading of the score and produced a poetic undulating realm that was both rich and subtle in colour and texture.” (Scena)
