PERFORMANCE

The finale concert of the 2021/2022 season kicks off with a percussive bang in Loren Loiacono’s Smothered By Sky, commissioned and premiered by the Detroit Symphony in 2017. Piano virtuoso Xiayin Wang joins the orchestra for Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 3. Described by Prokofiev himself as “a hymn to pure and noble spirit,” his expansive exuberant Symphony No. 5 concludes an exuberant season of vast musical possibilities.
