9th Annual Beethoven Festival – Yonkers Philharmonic
March 10 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Free
The Yonkers Philharmonic’s 9th Beethoven Festival has a little something for everyone. In honor of Woman’s History month, Music Director Ari Rudiakov starts with Overture No. 3 from 19th century Romantic German composer Emelie Mayer. Of course there’s Beethoven, his Fidelio Overture and his Triple Concerto for Violin, Cello and Piano with soloists Carmit Zori, Gjilberta Lucaj-Cohen and Robert Feritta. In between you’ll be dancing in your seats along with Brahms’ Hungarian Dances No. 1 and 5. These lively dance tunes based mostly on Hungarian themes, are among Brahms’s most popular works. Tucked in the middle is the WORLD PREMIERE of LvB: Variations, Extensions and Collisions written by living composer Thomas Caprino at the request of our music director. All are welcome to this free celebration. Come for the first half to experience the past and future of classical music and stay for the second half to hear Beethoven’s only concerto ever completed for more than one solo instrument.
This concert was made possible by the Westchester Community Foundation, a division of The New York Community Trust.
