Under Marin Alsop, the Chicago Symphony string players also offered a lyrical reading of Jessie Montgomery’s beguiling Strum.

Nicola Benedetti plays Beethoven’s Violin Concerto in an ensemble partnership with SCO led by Benjamin Marquise Gilmore. 

The American conductor led strong, characterful performances of Britten and Shostakovich that prompted some misgivings by their execution but made a powerful impression overall.

Violinist Kerson Leong and cellist Stéphane Tétreault were phenomenal soloists in Brahms' Double Concerto. 

The pianist put a highly individual and unapologetically modern stamp on Bach's Keyboard Concerto no. 7.

One of the most charming attributes of Montgomery's Strum is the way different individual voices rise from and fall back into a seductively colored sound canopy.
