Rachmaninoff Concerto No. 2 and March 20 – 22

Chopin’s Piano Concerto – March 27 – March 30
It was a young, desperate love that inspired this concerto by the teenage Frederic Chopin. Too shy to declare his feelings, he wrote: "I say to my piano what I would like to be saying to you..." Jan Lisiecki, just 18 years old, will perform this ardent declaration. These concerts also feature Janacek's blazing Sinfonietta, a spectacular showpiece for the Dallas Symphony brass!
