BSO/Classical New England — 2023/05/13

Now that the regular BSO season is ended, WCRB is giving us "encore broadcasts." This evening's is from last July at Tanglewood, as they tell us here:

Saturday, May 13, 2023
8:00 PM

Karina Canellakis returns to the Berkshires to lead the Boston Symphony in Rachmaninoff’s “Symphonic Dances,” and Emanuel Ax is the soloist in Chopin’s dramatic Piano Concerto No. 2.

Karina Canellakis, conductor 
Emanuel Ax, piano

Richard WAGNER Prelude to Lohengrin, Act 1
Frédéric CHOPIN Piano Concerto No. 2
RACHMANINOFF Symphonic Dances

This concert was originally broadcast on July 22, 2022 and is no longer available on demand.

I posted about it at the time, and the BSO performance detail page is still available.

There was no review in the Intelligencer, but the Globe had a review of the whole weekend, and the reviewer liked the show on the 22nd.

Bottom line: it's worth listening to, IMO.
