CHRIS ROGERSON Piano Concerto (KC Symphony commission, world premiere)
LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN Piano Concerto No. 4
LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN Symphony No. 8

Witness history in the making once again as Music Director Matthias Pintscher continues his “Beethoven & Beyond” concerts! Every season he pairs one of Beethoven’s five piano concertos with a brand-new commission for piano and orchestra from one of today’s composers. This year the commissioned composer is Chris Rogerson, who has written numerous pieces for the Kansas City Symphony. The Beethoven concerto is No. 4, perhaps the most surprising and unique of the five, and one of the least frequently performed. The symphony on the program is Beethoven’s Eighth, a light-hearted work filled with good humor — and plenty of musical jokes.
