Okanagan Symphony Orchestra presents

BRING ON BEETHOVEN

featuring Ian Parker (piano)

Performed at the Cleland Community Theatre, 325 Power St., Penticton BC

From the first flourishes of the piano to the final cascade of notes, Beethoven’s Emperor Concerto never fails to astonish its listeners, especially in the hands of the astonishing Ian Parker. “One of my best works,” said Beethoven about his 7th Symphony. The notes seem to fly off the page creating a wildness that was unimagined before his day and rarely reached since.
