Music Director Peter Oundjian leads the Colorado Music Festival Orchestra in one of the most iconic works in orchestral repertoire: Holst’s The Planets. From the driving intensity of “Mars, the Bringer of War” to the ethereal serenity of “Neptune, the Mystic,” this seven-movement suite brings the cosmos vividly to life in Chautauqua Auditorium. In the first half, pianist Nobuyuki Tsujii performs Rachmaninoff’s lyrical Piano Concerto No. 2, and additionally features the world premiere of O Beautiful Unity by composer Leigha Amick.
