Ms. Paik continues the ensemble’s Beethoven Project – a three-year adventurous commitment to perform all five Beethoven piano concertos – with his stirring First and dazzlingly powerful Third Piano Concertos. Samuel Adler’s Concertino offers a contemporary perspective on the concerto form with lively dance movements and energetic themes for the full orchestra.
