The Bernstein Experience

Thierry Fischer, conductor; Conrad Tao, piano

Immerse yourself in Bernstein’s startling and still timely portrait of modern uncertainty, Symphony No. 2 “Age of Anxiety,” when pianist Conrad Tao, “a thoughtful artist and dynamic performer” (The New York Times), returns to Utah for a celebration of Bernstein’s 100th birthday. The program begins with Saint-Saëns’ bone-rattling Danse macabre and his precocious Symphony No. 1.
