The great Polish composer Witold Lutosławski was fascinated by the folk music of his native land, and these tunes inspired him during the creation of his orchestral pieces. Conductor Robert Spano leads the San Diego Symphony in Lutosławski's Concerto for Orchestra, an astonishingly impressive piece; powerful and brilliantly written. Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 3 represents the pinnacle of Romantic concerto writing, and the virtuosic American pianist Garrick Ohlsson takes on this dazzling concerto with fire and flair that will have you cheering.

Note: gates for the Friday and Saturday performances will open at 6 p.m.
