Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No. 1
Mozart Requiem

In May we present one of the most-loved concertos ever written for the piano: Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1.  With dazzling virtuosity, finger power, and moments of touching introspection, this concerto demands everything of the soloist, and Adam Golka is up to the task.  Making his triumphant return to Erie after helping the Philharmonic choose its brand-new concert Steinway, Golka’s commanding presence at the keyboard has been celebrated throughout the musical world. 

We conclude our season with a touching tribute to the people of the Ukraine, who have struggled now for over a year to maintain their freedom and regain the fragile peace they once knew.  There are few works as poignant as Mozart’s Requiem in service to extraordinary times.  Written near the end of his short life, the Requiem contains music that pleas for consolation in the face of human sorrow.  It is a work that is as grandiose and openly dramatic as it is touching and deeply personal.  Together with the members of the Erie Philharmonic Chorus and our guest soloists, we dedicate this performance to the people of Ukraine and to those everywhere struggling for peace.
