Symphonic Euphoria: Prokofiev, Messiaen, and Scriabin

This program of sweeping drama, vivid colors, and transcendent melodies begins with Prokofiev’s Sinfonia Concertante, a spirited masterwork celebrating the cello’s lyricism and range. Messiaen then takes the audience on an impassioned spiritual journey in Les Offrandes oubliées before the concert closes with the ethereal grandeur of Scriabin’s The Poem of Ecstasy.

The Colburn Orchestra is generously underwritten by Eva and Marc Stern.
