Music Director Sebastian Lang-Lessing collaborates with veteran titan of the piano, Peter Serkin, playing Brahms’s towering and notoriously challenging Piano Concerto No. 1 in D minor; in Serkin’s hands, “even the most formidable works are fluid and expressive” (The New York Times). Brahms’s trusted friend and mentor Robert Schumann wrote his Symphony No. 4 in D-minor in 1841 but continued to revise it until 1851, as the phantasmagoric states of mind which accompanied his descent into madness took hold.
