Beethoven’s enthralling “Emperor” Concerto anchors this entertaining program with the distinguished Pinchas Zukerman leading the National Arts Centre Orchestra. Classic FM praises Jonathan Biss, saying that “he tantalizingly combines Classical concision with a Romanticised poetic sensitivity that gets right to the heart of Beethoven’s creative vision”.

At 6:45pm, join Rick Phillips for a relaxed and enlightening discussion about the performance, with a Pre-Concert Chat in the lobby.

This Casual Concert is performed with an intermission and is followed by a party for the whole audience in the lobby. Mingle with TSO musicians and guest artists in a relaxed setting and enjoy live music by Paisley Jura.
