1920-1114-sub7-880x300v2

The Seattle Symphony Orchestra and Seattle Symphony Principal Cellist Efe Baltacıgil will perform the world premiere of Poteat’s Cello Concerto, where the cello strives to promote art, expression and free will in an orchestral swarm of oppression, close-mindedness and uncertainty.  Also on the program is Rachmaninoff’s lush Symphony No. 2 and Britten’s delightful Four Sea Interludes from Peter Grimes.  You won’t want to miss this!
