Since its founding shortly after World War II, this grand orchestra has developed a diverse repertoire ranging from Baroque through 20th century music. Of course, their moving performances always include works by the great Russian composers. In addition, the Orchestra regularly commissions and performs new works each season. Under the direction of music director and chief conductor Roman Leontiev, the Orchestra will perform an exciting program, featuring Ravel’s Daphnis et Chloé: Suite No. 2 and Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade for Orchestra, Op. 35.  Prize-winning pianist Alexandre Pirojenko joins the orchestra for Prokofiev’s Concerto No. 1 in D-flat major.
