About the event

BNY Classics: Tchaikovsky's Pathétique
— About this Performance —
Nine days before his death, Tchaikovsky conducted the premiere of one of the most resounding final statements in music: his “Pathétique” Symphony, full of sweeping melodies, passionate outbursts, and emotional extremes. “Without exaggeration, I have put my whole soul into this symphony,” he wrote. “I love it as I have never loved any of my other musical offspring.” Then, Beethoven First Piano Concerto, indicative of the composer’s evolving style and fearless experimentation.
