The season opens with “Fêtes” from Debussy’s Nocturnes, a rhythmically driven depiction of light and shade. Cellist Amit Peled—one of today’s most exciting and virtuosic instrumentalists—then takes to the stage for Elgar’s Cello Concerto. Wistful and melancholic, yet warm and passionate, this cornerstone concerto reflects the composer’s heartache at the damage wrought by World War I. Ravel’s brilliant orchestration of Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition gives the orchestra many opportunities to shine in this musical gallery tour.
