“[Leila Josefowicz] is the inevitable go-to violinist when the orchestra is in need of a daring, probing, thinking, dancing, spectacularly virtuosic soloist” (Los Angeles Times). A hero to so many living composers for her fearless playing, she takes on Thomas Adès’ “Concentric Paths” Violin Concerto. The high-powered Elim Chan leads one of Tchaikovsky’s most passionate and popular symphonies and opens the program with a world premiere by the talented Clarice Assad.
