Millions of movie fans the world over have heard the grand fanfare from Also Sprach Zarathustra at the beginning of Stanley Kubrick’s epic film, 2001: A Space Odyssey. But hearing it live is different - a multitude of brasses, the full orchestra, and the Lay Family Concert Organ, all hailing a primeval sunrise. To open the concert, co-concertmaster Nathan Olson solos in Britten’s fiendishly difficult Violin Concerto. The program also includes Arvo Part's Cantus in Memoriam Benjamin Britten.
The concert, conducted by Simone Young, features violinist Nathan Olson.
