Holst and Saint Saens
December 8 & 9 at Powell Symphony Hall Gerard Schwarz is directing the Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra and women of the Saint Louis Symphony Chorus in a delightful musical experience.
Saint Saens Piano Concerto No. 2 in G minor displays Andre Watts' virtuosic technique, and Holst's: The Planets are "pure technicolor", and bold orchestra sounds. The music is as vivid as the heavenly bodies it describes.
