    To celebrate the holidays, we introduce the sought-after young Hungarian conductor Gregory Vajda in a program of concertos that spans three centuries. International favorite Jon Nakamatsu returns to play Beethoven's last and best-loved piano concerto, the revolutionary Emperor, first performed in 1811 Leipzig. To open, the oboe takes the lead in Ravel's orchestral suite of dances, written during the tumult of WWI in tribute to the grace and refinement of 18th century French culture. Three actual 18th century chamber concertos follow, created by the flamboyant Venetian priest Antonio Vivaldi and showcasing four of the Symphony's gifted principals. Savor an evening of brilliant individual performances in rich orchestral settings.
