Alisa Weilerstein, one of today’s foremost cellists, performs a concerto written for her by Joan Tower and co-commissioned by the DSO. Tower’s work shows a range of influences, from the rhythms she heard during her childhood in South America to the driving pulse found in the music of Beethoven — whose energetic Fourth Symphony concludes the concert.
Classical IPR will broadcast the concert live on Friday, February 13, starting at 10:40 a.m. Listen on air, through the IPR mobile app, or on your smart speaker or smart TV.
The live Detroit Symphony Orchestra broadcasts are a service of WRCJ and Detroit Public TV, in collaboration with WKAR, WCMU, WMUK and Interlochen Public Radio.
The broadcasts are hosted on-site by WRCJ's Dave Wagner and Peter Whorf. Questions or comments about the program or broadcast? Please contact WRCJ.
