Noseda conducts Tchaikovsky’s “Pathétique” Alexei Ogrintchouk plays Raskatov’s Time’s River

Tchaikovsky’s “Pathétique” Symphony is a force to be reckoned with—a veritable declaration of forbidden love shrouded in mystery. This impassioned program also features Prokofiev’s evocative Summer Night Suite and Time’s River, an NSO co-commission by Alexander Raskatov. Outstanding Moscow-born oboist Alexei Ogrintchouk takes center stage for Raskatov’s new concerto, described as “a hymn to nature in resonance with our time.”
