Performer: Vinay Parameswaran

Ravel’s Sonatine – performed in transcription for oboe – prefaced a lush reading of Britten’s Variations on a Theme of Frank Bridge.

The Cleveland Orchestra and their newly promoted Assistant Conductor Vinay Paraneswaran shed light on the musical pattern-making of the minimalists. And Bach.

Severance Hall will stay closed until at least June. In the meantime, we look at the series of concerts that The Cleveland Orchestra is providing on its digital platform, Adella.
