Work: Symphony no. 1 in C minor, Op.32

Yannick Nézet-Séguin smartly surrounds a guaranteed crowd-pleaser – Brahms’ First Piano Concerto – with less familiar works by Julia Wolfe and Louise Farrenc. 

Violinist Blake Pouliot, cellist Bryan Cheng, and pianist Angela Hewitt, all previous winners of the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal’s Concours, return to perform Beethoven’s Triple Concerto.
