Seattle Symphony: Dausgaard Conducts Brahms

Nicolas Hodges, piano

Simon Steen-Andersen – Piano Concerto (US premiere)
Johannes Brahms – Symphony No. 1 in C minor, Op. 68

Brahms’ First Symphony was decades in the making. His loyal public waited years to hear it and were rewarded with a towering masterpiece of emotion — noble, tender and heroic emotions clothed in orchestral garments. Simon Steen-Andersen’s intriguing Piano Concerto with film explores the inexorable force of gravity in music.

The concert will take place at 8pm.

Season subscription packages are now available. Individual ticket prices TBD.
