Chan Conducts Bartók

DANIEL KIDANE Sun Poem*
BARTÓK Violin Concerto No. 1
BARTÓK Dance Suite*
SCRIABIN The Poem of Ecstasy
Patricia Kopatchinskaja makes her much-anticipated Cleveland Orchestra debut with Bartók’s fiery Violin Concerto No. 1, which remained unperformed for 50 years after its dedicatee rejected both the concerto and the composer’s affections. Returning conductor Elim Chan pairs one Bartók favorite with another — the folk-inflicted Dance Suite — and rounds out the program with two marvelous works: Daniel Kidane’s fatherhood-inspired Sun Poem and the rapturous mysticism of Scriabin’s Poem of Ecstasy.
