Though Rachmaninoff spent his early years in Russia, he fled in 1917 and adopted America as his home country. In celebration of this revered composer’s 150th birthday, the Festival performs two full programs of his most iconic work written while he lived in America, including Symphonic Dances and his Third Symphony. Lauded Rachmaninoff interpreter Nicolai Lugansky joins the Orchestra for Rachmaninoff’s Third Piano Concerto and more.Â
