The Philadelphia Orchestra Yannick Nézet-Séguin Conductor Michelle Cann Piano—PHILADELPHIA ORCHESTRA DEBUT Program: Rossini Overture to La scala di seta Price Piano Concerto in One Movement—FIRST PHILADELPHIA ORCHESTRA PERFORMANCE Schubert Symphony No. 4 (“Tragic”) On the heels of the first complete Philadelphia Orchestra performance of Florence Price's Symphony No. 1, pianist Michelle Cann makes her Philadelphia Orchestra debut with Price's Piano Concerto in One Movement. This marks the first performance of the original orchestration of the work since the composer’s death in 1953. Cann's performance is supported by ONEcomposer, an initiative dedicated to musicians whose contributions have been historically erased, housed at Cornell University. In providing a platform for the study, performance, and discussion of a single, underrepresented composer's life and legacy, ONEcomposer promotes a more complete understanding of musical histories. Cann’s performance is artfully complemented by Rossini’s sparkling Overture to La scala di seta (The Silken Ladder) and Schubert’s engaging and early Symphony No. 4, written under the influence of Haydn and Mozart.
