Scott Speck, conductor

Randall Woolf – Shakedown
Sibelius – Symphony no.3
Beethoven – Piano Concerto no.5 (Emperor Concerto), Awadagin Pratt, piano
The West Michigan Symphony presents the spectacularly compelling, Naumberg Award-winning pianist Awadagin Pratt in a thrilling performance of Ludwig van Beethoven’s most beloved concerto. Pratt’s ability to dig deep into the heart of the music is almost without peer—his playing ranges from the most spine-tingling whisper to the most hair-raising fortissimo. Also on the concert is the most lighthearted symphony of Jan Sibelius, the great musical painter of breathtaking Finnish landscapes and sonic emotions; and a modern masterpiece by Randall Woolf.
