SEATTLE, USA – ISATA, SHEKU, BRAIMAH – ORCHESTRAL

Following two triumphant Benaroya Hall appearances, internationally lauded British cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason returns with two other members of his remarkable musical family: sister Isata on piano and brother Braimah on violin. Don’t miss these three sensational musicians’ rendition of Beethoven’s unique and vibrant Triple Concerto, the composer’s only concerto for multiple soloists. Kahchun Wong also returns to our stage, conducting British composer Malcolm Arnold’s emotional Peterloo Overture, which commemorated Manchester radicals who were killed while protesting for parliamentary reform in 1819. The evening finishes with Bartók’s cherished Concerto for Orchestra, an adventurous melding of folk themes and unorthodox tonality that highlights each section of the orchestra.
