How different is classical music from jazz, really? From smoky Soviet salons to mid-century Manhattan, jazz has left its mark on even the most unexpected corners of classical music. Join Parlando for a foot-tapping, genre-crossing evening that explores how classical composers borrowed the rhythms, harmonies and swing of jazz to create something entirely new. The program features Shostakovich’s sly and stylish Jazz Suite No. 1, Kapustin’s electrifying Piano Concerto No. 2, performed by rising star Maxim Lando, and Duke Ellington’s dazzling transformation of Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker Suite.
