Mobile Symphony Orchestra’s annual Beethoven and Blue Jeans performance explodes into action with Jessie Montgomery’s Starburst, a dynamic and effervescent work that radiates with shimmering textures and rhythmic vitality. Montgomery’s composition unfolds in bursts of energy and lyricism, creating celestial fireworks in a symphonic setting. Next they’ll delve into Joseph Haydn’s Symphony No. 94 (“Surprise”), a masterpiece of classical form and high-spirited wit, never before performed at the Mobile Symphony.
Finally they’ll bring out not one, not two, but three soloists to perform Ludwig van Beethoven’s rarely-performed Triple Concerto with the orchestra. Violinist Benjamin Baker, cellist James Baik, and pianist Chaeyoung Park weave their intricate dialogues together with the grandeur of the MSO. From the lyrical exchanges of the opening Allegro to the spirited dance of the Rondo alla Polacca, the concerto presents one delight after another.
