Piano Concerto No. 25 |
147 years. That’s how long the world had to wait to hear Mozart’s 25th Piano Concerto again after its debut performances in 1787. The piece was so unique and novel that most audiences and musicians at the time likely didn’t know what to make of it. Hear this piece that was far ahead of its time played by Jonathan Biss, a pianist in demand all around the world. The evening opens with the music of Tarik O’Regan, a composer with an international career who is writing a new work for the Jacksonville Symphony set to debut in June 2022.
